Renewable Energy in Numbers [INFOGRAPHIC]

About 17% of our worldwide energy consumption comes from renewables. And that share has not increased in recent years.

The following infographic looks at our portfolio of renewables and offers an overview of the share of renewables in the energy supply, country by country.
This is part 2 of a 2-part series. Have a look at part 1 for an overview of our total worldwide energy consumption in numbers, including fossil fuels.
