World Bank data on energy consumption from combustible renewables and waste, measured in metric tons of oil equivalent. The dataset covers solid biomass, liquid biomass, biogas, industrial waste, and municipal waste. It is compiled by the World Development Indicators (WDI) Database Archives.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in combustible_renewables_and_waste consumption over time for specific countries.
- Compare the share of solid_biomass versus municipal_waste in national energy mixes.
- Model correlations between biogas consumption and other economic or agricultural indicators.
- Forecast future energy_from_waste production based on historical time-series data.
Strengths
- Sourced from the authoritative World Development Indicators (WDI) database.
- Provides a standardized metric (metric tons of oil equivalent) for cross-country comparison.
- Covers multiple fuel types including solid biomass, liquid biomass, biogas, and waste.
Limitations
- Specific row count, column details, and temporal coverage are unknown.
- Data may have reporting gaps or inconsistencies between different countries.
- The most recent update year is not provided, potentially limiting current analysis.
