Renewable Energy Production by Countries - 2023 Top 15
Data source: kaggle
Data Explanation
- The chart displays the distribution of renewable energy production in 2023 among leading countries globally.
- Renewable energy types include: Wind (blue), Solar (orange), Hydroelectric (green), and Other renewables (red).
- The X-axis represents the energy production in terawatt-hours (TWh), while the Y-axis lists different countries.
Visual Analysis Results
- China: Showed the highest total renewable energy production, reaching 2894.1 TWh, with significant contributions from hydroelectric power and wind energy.
- USA: Also displayed a high level of renewable energy production, primarily driven by wind and solar energy.
- Brazil and Canada: These countries made substantial contributions through hydroelectric power, which is a major part of their renewable energy mix.
- India, Germany, Japan, and Russia: These countries showcased a more balanced energy mix, though the overall production was lower, especially in wind and solar energy.
- Smaller production countries (such as Sweden, Vietnam): These countries had lower renewable energy outputs but still demonstrated a diverse energy mix.
Summary
The chart effectively illustrates the variations in renewable energy production and types among different countries. It highlights China and the USA's leadership roles in renewable energy production globally, while other countries like India and Germany are shown to have a balanced energy mix in the process of catching up. This visualization aids policymakers, researchers, and the public in understanding the efforts and achievements of countries in developing renewable energy.
