Renewable energy consumption data measured in terajoules (TJ). The dataset covers consumption from multiple technologies including hydro, biomass, wind, solar, biofuels, biogas, geothermal, marine, and waste. It is provided by Sustainable Energy for All via the World Bank.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in hydro, wind, and solar consumption over time to forecast future energy mix.
- Compare the adoption rates of modern biomass versus traditional biomass across different geographies.
- Model the correlation between liquid biofuels and biogas consumption data with policy implementation dates.
- Assess the contribution of geothermal and marine energy technologies to total renewable consumption.
Strengths
- Covers consumption data for nine distinct renewable energy technologies.
- Provides a standardized global metric measured in terajoules (TJ).
Limitations
- Specific row count, time range, and geographic coverage are unknown.
- Data granularity (e.g., country-level, annual) is unspecified.
