Japan's rapid industrial growth since the end of World War II doubled the nation's energy consumption every five years into the 1990s. During the 1960–72 period of accelerated growth, energy consumption grew much faster than GNP, doubling Japan's consumption of world energy.
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]
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.
Hydroelectricity is Japan's main renewable energy source, with an installed capacity of about 27 GW, or 16% of the total generation capacity, of which about half is pumped-storage. The production was 73 TWh in 2010. [37] As of September 2011, Japan had 1,198 small hydropower plants with a total capacity of 3,225 MW.
Japan and Korea have very little in the way of natural resources; energy imports dominate their consumption patterns and the two countries remain important players on the world energy scene.
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.
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.
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.
