Energy profiles for Syria’s governorates
Standardised regional profiles managed in Sanity, with indicators shown only after publication and source, date, and quality documentation.
Damascus
A reference profile for Damascus Governorate focused on electricity, distributed energy, and data gaps. This version contains no governorate-level numerical indicators because no sufficiently current, open, and documented series was identified for publication.
Rif Dimashq
A reference profile for Rif Dimashq Governorate focused on power plants and networks, industrial areas, distributed energy, and urban and rural demand. The current baseline includes Deir Ali Power Plant and Deir Ali II Expansion, while maintaining a distinction between nominal capacity and actual operating status. Listed capacities are not a measure of current available capacity.
Aleppo
A reference profile for Aleppo Governorate covering electricity generation, hydropower, renewable energy, industrial and service infrastructure, and rehabilitation indicators. Major assets include Aleppo Thermal Power Plant at a reference nominal capacity of 1,065 MW, with reported operating output of about 400 MW on 6 May 2026, and Tishreen Dam at 630 MW nominal hydropower capacity. The governorate is also seeing continued deployment of solar energy for water and irrigation services alongside extensive rehabilitation of transmission and distribution infrastructure.
Homs
A reference profile for Homs Governorate covering the electricity system, industrial facilities, oil and gas assets, refining, and rehabilitation needs. The current baseline includes Jandar Thermal Power Plant and its expansion, as well as the Homs Wind Pilot Farm. The profile distinguishes nominal capacity, available capacity, and actual operation; the figures listed here are nominal/reference capacities only.
Hama
A reference profile for Hama Governorate covering power generation, the electricity grid, solar energy, water and agricultural infrastructure, and rehabilitation needs. Major existing assets include Al-Zara Thermal Power Plant at 660 MW nominal capacity and Mhardeh Thermal Power Plant at 660 MW nominal capacity, where a 100 MW generating unit was restarted on 20 March 2026. Reconstruction of the 1,000 MW Zayzoun project has also entered implementation, alongside the new 800 MW Mhardeh project, while a new 3 MW solar plant entered service in eastern rural Hama in April 2026.
Latakia
A reference profile for Latakia Governorate covering electricity generation and grid infrastructure, Latakia Port, water and agricultural infrastructure, distributed energy, tourism and coastal environmental risks. The generation baseline includes the Al-Rasteen project with a reference design capacity of 526 MW, while current operating capacity still requires additional official verification. During 2026, electricity and water infrastructure rehabilitation continued across several areas, Latakia Port recorded significant commercial activity, and irrigation and wildfire-response systems were strengthened.
Tartus
A reference profile for Tartus Governorate focused on electricity, Baniyas refinery and port, petroleum transport and storage, energy for coastal services, and environmental risks. The current baseline includes Baniyas Thermal Power Plant and its expansion. Listed capacities are nominal/reference capacities, not current operating capacity.
Idlib
A reference profile for Idlib Governorate covering electricity supply, grid infrastructure, solar energy, water and agricultural infrastructure, and rehabilitation needs. The governorate relies significantly on electricity imported from Türkiye, including a new 80 MW supply line completed in February 2026. Rehabilitation of 66 kV and 20 kV networks and substations continues across heavily damaged areas. Solar power also plays an important role in essential water services, including the documented 1.5 MW Al-Arshani solar installation.
Raqqa
A reference profile for Raqqa Governorate covering electricity, hydropower and dams, oil, agriculture, irrigation, water infrastructure and grid rehabilitation. The governorate hosts the Euphrates Dam, one of Syria's most important water and energy assets, with a current official reference design capacity of 880 MW, alongside the Kadiran regulating dam and hydropower station. During 2026, electricity availability in Raqqa city and surrounding rural areas improved to around 16 hours per day in May while 66 kV and 20 kV networks were rehabilitated. Oil-field rehabilitation also resumed, with Al-Thawra field producing around 2,500 barrels of liquids per day in May 2026, while agriculture and irrigation remain central to the local economy.
Deir ez-Zor
A reference profile for Deir ez-Zor Governorate covering electricity, oil and gas, renewable energy, service infrastructure and environmental risks. The current baseline includes Al-Taym Power Plant at 102 MW nominal capacity, kept separate from the governorate's available electricity supply capacity, which rose to 115 MW in August 2026 following the Al-Taym substation expansion. Oil and gas assets remain under rehabilitation, while two of five gas wells at Conoco were restarted on 1 September 2026 with production capacity of up to 1.5 million m³/day.
Al-Hasakah
A reference profile for Al-Hasakah Governorate focused on oil and gas, local electricity, energy for water and agriculture, and environmental impacts of petroleum infrastructure. The current baseline includes Al-Swedieh Power Plant with a nominal capacity of 150 MW. The listed capacity is a reference figure and does not imply that the full capacity is currently available or operating.
Daraa
A reference profile for Daraa Governorate covering the electricity network, substations, distributed solar energy, water and agricultural infrastructure, and rehabilitation needs. The governorate relies on the southern transmission network, with the 230 kV Al-Kiswah–Sheikh Miskin line serving as a principal supply corridor while grid and substation rehabilitation continued through 2026. Solar power is increasingly used for drinking-water wells, healthcare and public services. Agriculture remains the governorate's primary economic sector, supported by growing food-processing activity.
As-Suwayda
A reference profile for As-Suwayda Governorate covering the electricity network and substations, distributed solar energy, wind resources, water and agricultural infrastructure, and rehabilitation needs. The governorate relies on the southern transmission network, with Al-Kom 230/66 kV substation serving as a major grid asset, while no major conventional power-generation plant is currently verified within the governorate. During 2026, rehabilitation continued across medium- and low-voltage networks, solar-powered drinking-water wells and water-service infrastructure. Agriculture and livestock remain central to the local economy alongside a significant craft and industrial base.
Quneitra
A reference profile for Quneitra Governorate covering electricity networks, water and agricultural infrastructure, distributed solar energy and rehabilitation needs, while accounting for the governorate's geographic characteristics and access constraints in some areas. No major conventional power-generation plant is currently verified within the governorate; electricity-sector activity is concentrated on distribution-network rehabilitation, local transformers and voltage improvement. During 2026, irrigation networks, pumping stations and drinking-water infrastructure continued to be rehabilitated alongside the use of solar power for selected wells and water facilities.
