We will continue to update our data and charts with the latest global and country figures – typically on an annual basis. We do this to compare energy data across different metrics and sources. So at Our World in Data we try to maintain consistency by converting all energy data to watt-hours. This can be confusing, and make comparisons difficult. In the energy domain, there are many different units thrown around – joules, exajoules, million tonnes of oil equivalents, barrel equivalents, British thermal units, terawatt-hours, to name a few. This allows you to compare specific countries you might be interested in, and measure progress against others. In the selection box above you can also add or remove additional countries and they will appear on all of the charts on this page. This page provides the data for your chosen country across all of the key metrics on this topic. Many of us want an overview of how much energy our country consumes, where it comes from, and if we’re making progress on decarbonizing our energy mix.
