The per capita data for many countries may be slightly inaccurate as population data may not be for the same year as the consumption data. Population data were obtained mainly from the IMF [ 3 ] in 2021 with some exceptions, in which case they were obtained from the Wikipedia pages for the corresponding countries/territories.
[15] [16] In the United States, 70% of current coal-fired power plants run at a higher cost than new renewable energy technologies (excluding hydro) and by 2030 all of them will be uneconomic. [17] In the rest of the world 42% of coal-fired power plants were operating at a loss in 2019.
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.
The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various non-financial costs (environmental ...
Data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) also revealed that a further 40 countries generated at least 50 per cent of the electricity they ...
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 ...
World electric generation by country and source in 2022 [1] This is a list of countries and dependencies by annual electricity production. China is the world's largest electricity producing country, followed by the United States and India. Data are for the year 2022 and are sourced from Ember. [1]
This is a list of electric generation, consumption, exports and imports by country. Data are for the year 2021 and are from the EIA. [1] Figures are in terawatt-hours (TWh). Links for each location go to the relevant electricity market page, when available.
