Over the past half a century, the world's electricity consumption has continuously grown, reaching approximately 27,000 terawatt-hours by 2023. Between 1980 and 2023, electricity consumption more than tripled, while the global population reached eight billion people. Growth in industrialization and electricity access across the globe have further boosted electricity demand. China's economic rise and growth in global power use Since 2000, China's GDP has recorded an astonishing 15-fold increase, turning it into the second-largest global economy, behind only the United States. To fuel the development of its billion-strong population and various manufacturing industries, China requires more energy than any other country. As a result, it has become the largest electricity consumer in the world. Electricity consumption per capita In terms of per capita electricity consumption, China and other BRIC countries are still vastly outpaced by developed economies with smaller population sizes. Iceland, with a population of less than half a million inhabitants, consumes by far the most electricity per person in the world. Norway, Qatar, Canada, and the United States also have among the highest consumption rates. Multiple contributing factors such as the existence of power-intensive industries, household sizes, living situations, appliance and efficiency standards, and access to alternative heating fuels determine the amount of electricity the average person requires in each country.

This table shows regional figures on the average consumption of energy (natural gas and electricity) of private dwellings broken down by type of dwelling and ownership for Nederland, group of provinces, provinces and municipalities. Besides, for total dwellings only, the share of heat distribution (district heating) has been added, because this is relevant for the interpretation of the height of the average consumption of natural gas.

Data available from: 2010

Status of the figures: All figures from 2010 - 2021 are definite. Figures of 2022 are provisional.

Changes as of October 2023: Provisional figures of 2022 have been added. Figures of 2021 have been updated. The category “Average consumption of electricity” is replaced by “Average supply of electricity” and a category “Average net supply of electricity” has been added.

When will new figures be published? A revision to the method of this statistic is currently underway, causing the table to be delayed. New figures will come in the 3rd quarter of the folowing year.

Electricity in the U.S. Electricity is used as a power source for a variety of things in the U.S. including cooling, technology, and some transportation. Electricity is generated from a variety of sources. Globally, coal/peat/oil shale accounts for the largest share of the world’s electricity production. The electricity generating capacity in the U.S. has grown significantly in recent years and is expected to continue to grow. Energy Usage in the U.S. Energy consumption in the U.S. shows distinct trends. Primary energy consumption in the U.S. has remained stable since 1998 with some decreases in recent years. However, some sectors consume more than others. In recent years, the electric power sector consumed the largest quantity of energy generated in the U.S.. Sources of energy are also used differently. As of 2018, petroleum and natural gas are the most commonly consumed energy sources in the United States.

Figures represent energy end use, which is the sum of retail sales and direct use of electricity by the producing entity. Electricity consumption in the U.S. is expected to continue increasing in the next decades. Which sectors consume the most electricity in the U.S.? Consumption has often been associated with economic growth. Nevertheless, technological improvements in efficiency and new appliance standards have led to a stabilizing of electricity consumption, despite the increased ubiquity of chargeable consumer electronics. Electricity consumption is highest in the residential sector, followed by the commercial sector. Equipment used for space heating and cooling account for some of the largest shares of residential electricity end use.
