The electricity sector in Venezuela is heavily dependent on hydroelectricity, which accounted for 64% of the nation''s electricity generation in 2021.

This research paper examines the state of Venezuela’s complex electricity crisis within the context of the severe political, economic and humanitarian challenges that the country faces. In doing so, the paper explores four central issues: The balance between reconstructing Venezuela’s historic electricity system and building new systems.
Since 2009, there have been no official statistics on the electricity and energy sectors. Since the end of the 19th century, the production of electricity has been steadily growing in Venezuela. In between, there were some jolts due to prolonged droughts associated with the El Niño phenomenon.
Since 2013, Venezuela has been confronting a profound political, social, and economic crisis with a strong negative impact on the country’s energy sector. The crisis has severely affected the production of oil, natural gas, fuels, and electricity (Monaldi et al., 2021).
Unbundling Venezuela’s centralized, state-centric electricity management system: The regulation of the state-concentrated and centrally managed electricity supply system, as well as the day-to-day management of the state-owned CORPOELEC, will need to be reformed and unpacked.
The power sector is part of the broader Venezuelan economy. As such, in order to achieve reform it will have to compete for financial resources for reconstruction and operation, as well as for priority treatment when it comes to difficult political decisions, such as rationalizing subsidies and reducing theft and corruption.
Corruption: While it is difficult to separate from management incompetence and the politicization of the sector’s governance, there is evidence that corruption has played a part in the Venezuelan electricity crisis.
