Energy data tools

A few interactive charts built from public European energy statistics.

• Hourly electricity generation by source →

  Ten European countries since 2019, as a stacked area chart. Zoom from a multi-year overview down to individual hours; the averaging switches from monthly to daily to hourly as you go.

• European energy flows →

  The complete EU-27 energy balance as a Sankey diagram — from primary production and imports through power generation to final consumption. Toggle between total supply and domestic use only.

• Electricity generation mix, compared →

  Put up to three countries side by side across any two years from 1990 to 2024, as shares or as terawatt-hours. The EU-27 aggregate is there too.

• EU natural gas imports →

  Where the EU's gas comes from since 1990, and how much of it arrives as LNG rather than by pipeline. Flows between member states are netted out.

• Electric cars in Europe →

  The electric share of new car registrations and of the car fleet across 30 countries — compared between two years, or tracked over time.

• Global solar and wind capacity additions →

  How much new solar PV and wind the world builds each year since 2001, and what the last five years imply for the rest of the decade.

• The falling cost of renewable electricity →

  What a unit of electricity costs to generate, what a unit of capacity costs to build, and — back to 1975 — what a solar module costs.

• Who caused climate change? →

  Every country's share of all the CO₂ ever emitted — in total, per person alive today, and as the warming it actually caused. With and without deforestation, which reorders the list.
