Definition & method

Methodology: The numerator includes the direct consumption of renewable energy sources plus the final consumption of gross electricity and heat estimated to have come from renewable sources, while the denominator is the total final energy consumption of all energy products. Statistical concept(s):

Renewable energy consumption is the share of renewable energy in total final energy consumption.

What to keep in mind

  • Share of total final energy consumption, including traditional biomass; distinct from electricity generation share and installed capacity.
  • Annual 2000–2025 selection. Source estimates and historical values may be revised; unavailable values remain missing.
