Energy imports, net (% of energy use) in Nicaragua was 40.86 as of 2014. Its highest value over the past 43 years was 49.69 in 1977, while its lowest value was 28.92 in 1991.

Definition: Net energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter. Energy use refers to use of primary energy before transformation to other end-use fuels, which is equal to indigenous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
