This report was previously published by BP.
Figures refer to gross generation and do not account for cross-border electricity supply. According to the source, the data was converted on the basis of thermal equivalence: the amount of fuel required by thermal power stations to produce the indicated electricity output.
This statistic was compiled using several releases of the publication.
Figures were restated based on the latest edition of the report.
Hydroelectricity consumption in Europe amounted to ****exajoules in 2024, an increase of roughly *** percent in comparison to the previous year. Europe's consumption of hydroelectricity peaked in 2024.
