Energy Consumption per Capita Lesson Summary Frequently Asked Questions Which country uses the most electricity per person? As of 2019, the country of Gibraltar uses the most energy per capita. It uses 1.52 million kWh on average. How much energy is consumed in the...
This unfortunate energy story is essentially a physics problem. Energy per capita and, in fact, resources per capita, must stay high enough for an economy’s growing population. When this does not happen, history shows that civilizations tend to collapse. Figure 1. World fossil fu...

There is huge variability in the quantity of energy consumed per person around the world. There is more than a 100-fold difference between the highest and lowest countries shown on Figure 1. Figure 1. Energy consumption per capita in 2019 for a few sample countries based on...
Although urban expansion would accelerate energy consumption17,18,19, the automotive fuel use tends to correlate negatively with the urbanization level due to economies of scale20,21,22. For instance, more urbanized areas in Canada consumed lower per capita energy23. Additionally, total energy consum...
Though the total consumption is large, the energy consumption per capita is only 1.13 tce, the electricity consumption per capita 1017 kW, and the household electricity consumption per capita is 138 kW. Coal accounts for about 76% of the total energy consumed. This paper discusses utilization ...
The combined volume per capita in the 'Energy & Sports Drinks' segment of the non-alcoholic drinks market in the United States was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2029 by in total 2.9 litres (+9.56 percent). After the ninth consecutive increasing year, the combined volume pe...
(2,930 kwh per capita) rather than at the 1990 United States level of ˜100,000 kwh per capita. For the vast majority of people on this planet, this represents a sharp decrease in the amount of energy consumed, and, therefore, a major reduction in their quality of life. It is ...
is estimated to be about 1.5 when only the energy output of the corn ethanol is considered and between 2.1 and 2.3 when byproducts are recognized [34]. Thus, nearly half the energy in corn ethanol is a movement of the energy embedded in fuels consumed in other parts of the energy system...
the ratio ofindustrial energy consumptionto total GDP tends to be higher in non-OECD economies than in OECD economies. On average, industrial energy intensity (the consumption of energy consumed in the industrial sector per dollar of economic output) in non-OECD countries is double that in OECD...
