Hydroelectricity Consumption

Information Comments (0)

This dataset contains information about world's hydroelectricity consumption from 1965. Data from BP. Follow datasource.kapsarc.org for timely data to advance energy economics research. 


Notes:

* Based on gross primary hydroelectric generation and not accounting for cross-border electricity supply.

** Basis of thermal equivalence assuming 38% conversion efficiency in a modern thermal power station.

**** Growth rates are adjusted for leap years.

***** Excludes Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania prior to 1985 and Slovenia prior to 1990.

^ Less than 0.05.

♦ Less than 0.05%.
