Where Europe’s
electricity came from.

A note on the numbers

This is an independent demonstration, not an Ember publication or a commissioned client project.

Source & licence

Ember, Yearly Electricity Data, adapted under CC BY 4.0. Country shapes: Natural Earth, public domain. Data are filtered to 2015–2025 and Ember’s Europe classification; shapes are simplified for this view. The grouping includes Cyprus and Russia, but not Türkiye. Russia’s values are national although its shape is cropped. No affiliation or endorsement is implied.

How this was checked

All 456 available country-years were checked against generation totals; the largest component-sum difference is 0.002 TWh (rounding). Missing observations stay missing: “No data” is not zero. Albania has no 2025 observation, the Faroe Islands end in 2023, and Ukraine ends in 2022. Fossil includes coal, gas and other fossil fuels; the seven views are not seven additive categories.

Read the map carefully

The same 0–100% scale is used across every year and source. Small economies use the same scale as large ones. A large coloured country does not necessarily produce more electricity. Boundaries are for orientation, not a statement about sovereignty. Some economies have no visible shape at this scale; all remain available in the selector and CSV.
