Energy indicators
Energy statistics, mapped by country
Energy access and electricity mix answer different questions. One asks whether households can use electricity or clean cooking fuels. The other asks how a country’s generated electricity is composed.
OurBlueDot keeps those series separate so a high renewable share is never used as a substitute for household access, and missing access data is never filled to complete the map.
What you can compare
The share of people with electricity, the share with clean cooking fuels and technologies, and the generation mix that produces electricity in a given year.
Coverage honesty
Access series and generation series do not cover the same countries in every year. Grey countries mean the selected source did not publish a comparable value, not that the value is zero.
Indicators in this theme
Each indicator keeps its own source, period, and method. Open a layer for the definition, then a country for the value.
Electricity mix
Compare the low-carbon share of electricity generation across countries.
