Oil sources for the European Union with tendency forecast. Oil is one of the largest primary energy sources in Europe. It is mostly used for transportation and heating. Oil production is relatively low in Europe, with significant production only in the North Sea. Most of Europe's oil comes from imports (about 90% for the EU28).

However, in practice many policy competencies in relation to energy remain at national member state level, and progress in policy at European level requires voluntary cooperation by members states.

Global energy consumption, measured in exajoules per year: Coal, oil, and natural gas remain the primary global energy sources even as renewables have begun rapidly increasing. [1] Primary energy consumption by source (worldwide) from 1965 to 2020 [2] World energy supply and consumption refers to the global supply of energy resources and its ...
Of the energy consumed in Europe, 50% is imported, so the story here is less about production numbers and more about consumption patterns. Europe is trying to change that by emphasizing the growth ...
The energy intensity is the ratio of primary energy consumption over gross domestic product measured in constant US $ at purchasing power parities. In 2009, energy intensity in OECD countries remained stable at 0.15 koe/$05p, with 0.12 koe/$05p in both the European Union and Japan and 0.17 koe/$05p in the USA. It remained particularly high in ...
The increase in renewable energy production also helped Europe avoid €59 billion (£50bn) in fossil fuel import costs over the last five years. ... analysed power supplies in all 27 EU countries ...
The data are given in kilograms of oil equivalent per year, and gigajoules per year, and in watts, as average equivalent power. Notes on conversions. 1 kg of oil equivalent (kgoe) = 11.63 kWh or 1 kWh = 0.08598 kgoe [2] 1000 kgoe = 42 GJ; 1 GJ/a = 31.7 W average; 1 W average = 8.76 kWh per year (365 × 24 Wh per year)
The company has scaled back low-carbon operations, including floating offshore wind and hydrogen projects, retreated from European and Chinese power markets, sold refineries and weakened a 2030 ...
