Top 10 countries to compsumsion in the world năm 2024

This list of countries by electric energy consumption is mostly based on the Energy Information Administration. Several non-sovereign entities are also included for information purposes, with their parent state noted. 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 in 2021 with some exceptions, in which case they were obtained from the Wikipedia pages for the corresponding countries/territories. per capita was calculated according to the formula:

Electric energy per capita [ in watt-hour ] = Total population electricity consumption [in /yr] × 1,000 /population. Electric power per capita [ in watt ] = Total population electricity consumption [in /yr] × 0.114077116 /population. 1 /yr = 1,000 Wh/(365.25 × 24) h = 0.11408 Watt The table above grouped by continent Continent Total electricity consumption (exaJoule) North America 113.7Oceania6.5 Europe 82.38 South America 28.46 Asia-Pacific 344.11 Africa 19.99 Antarctica 0 (N/A) World 595.14

Notes[edit]

1. It is interesting to compare the average electric power consumed per capita with the person's basal metabolic rate (about 65 watts), the average power obtained by a human body at rest from the food metabolism.
