I've been reading EIA report and this plot captured my attention. I now want to be able to create the same type of plot.

It shows the energy productivity evolution between two years (1990-2015) and adds the change value between this two periods.
What is the name of this type of plot? How can I create the same plot (with different countries) in excel?

That's a dot plot. It is sometimes called a "Cleveland dot plot" because there is a variant of a histogram made with dots that people sometimes call a dot plot as well. This particular version plots two dots per country (for the two years) and draws a thicker line between them. The countries are sorted by the latter value. The primary reference would be Cleveland's book Visualizing Data. Googling leads me to this Excel tutorial.
I scraped the data, in case anyone wants to play with them.
Country 1990 2015
Russia 71.5 101.4
Canada 74.4 102.9
Other non-OECD Europe/Eurasia 60.9 135.2
South Korea 127.0 136.2
China 58.5 137.1
Middle East 170.9 158.8
United States 106.8 169.0
Australia/New Zealand 123.6 170.9
Brazil 208.5 199.8
Japan 181.0 216.7
