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 ...
This is a list of countries by total primary energy consumption and production. 1 quadrillion BTU = 293 TW·h = 1.055 EJ 1 quadrillion BTU/yr = 1.055 EJ/yr = 293 TW·h/yr = 33.433 GW. The numbers below are for the total energy consumption or production in a whole year, so should be multiplied by 33.433 to get the average value in GW in that year.
By 2025, Asia is projected to account for half of the world’s electricity consumption, with one-third of global electricity to be consumed in China. [1] This list of countries by electric energy consumption is mostly based on the Energy Information Administration. [2]
About a fifth of global energy is consumed as electricity: for residential, industrial, commercial, transportation and other purposes. [2] The global electricity consumption in 2022 was 24,398 terawatt-hour (TWh), almost exactly three times the amount of consumption in 1981 (8,132 TWh). [3] [failed verification] China, the United States, and ...

Renewable energy sources are even larger than the traditional fossil fuels and in theory can easily supply the world's energy needs. 89 PW [32] of solar power falls on the planet's surface. While it is not possible to capture all, or even most, of this energy, capturing less than 0.02% would be enough to meet the current energy needs.
Social Progress Index vs Energy Use per capita, 2015. List of countries by Social Progress Index. World energy consumption per capita based on 2021 data. This is a list of countries by total energy consumption per capita. This is not the consumption of end-users but all energy needed as input to produce fuel and electricity for end-users.
Global primary energy consumption by source Share of fossil fuels, nuclear and renewable energy in global primary energy consumption. Primary energy sources should not be confused with the energy system components (or conversion processes) through which they are converted into energy carriers.
