Renewable energy consumption in Central and South America from 1998 to 2011
(in million metric tons of oil equivalent)
Characteristic
Consumption in million metric tons of oil equivalent
Based on gross generation from renewable sources including wind, geothermal, solar, biomass and waste, and not accounting for cross-border electricity supply. Converted on the basis of thermal equivalence assuming 38 percent conversion efficiency in a modern thermal power station. The figures prior to 2001 were taken from a previous edition of the publication.
