THREAD 🧵

About 30% of the world’s electricity comes from renewables, including hydropower, solar and wind among others.

We break down how the world’s electricity is consumed 👇

🔗: aje.io/vqg8ye Image
As of 2020, nearly 80% of the world’s energy was made by burning fossil fuels – oil, coal & gas.

Renewable energy, including hydropower, solar, wind and biofuels, accounted for just over 10%, with nuclear and traditional biomass making up the remainder aje.io/4sg479 Image
According to IEA, access to electricity is quantified as a household being able to provide:

• Basic lighting of 4 lightbulbs 5 hours a day
• Running a refrigerator
• Power to charge a mobile device or operate a television for 4 hours per day
