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 ...
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]
As of 2013, China, Germany, and Japan, and India, four of the world's largest economies generate more electricity from renewables than from nuclear power. Based on REN21's 2014 report, renewables supplied 19% of humans' global energy consumption. This energy consumption is divided as 9% coming from traditional biomass, 4.2% as heat energy (non ...
Electricity accounted for more than 20% of worldwide final energy consumption in 2022, with oil being less than 40%, coal being less than 9%, natural gas being less than 15%, biofuels and waste less than 10%, and other sources (such as heat, solar electricity, wind electricity and geothermal) being more than 5%. [10] The total final electricity ...
World consumption of primary energy by energy type. [1] Energy consumption per capita per country (2001). Red hues indicate increase, green hues decrease of consumption during the 1990s. [2] The environmental impact of the energy industry is significant, as energy and natural resource consumption are closely related.
The MIT report calculated the world's total EGS resources to be over 13 YJ, of which over 0.2 YJ would be extractable, with the potential to increase this to over 2 YJ with technology improvements – sufficient to provide all the world's energy needs for several thousand years. [30] The total heat content of the Earth is 13,000,000 YJ. [29]
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.
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.
