Type of indicator (global, European, national)
  • Global
  • European (sdg_07_40)
  • National
Correlation with other sets of indicators
SDG: 7.2.1.1
Description
Percentage of gross final consumption of renewable energy over gross final consumption of energy at national level.
Calculation method

\[PCER^t=\frac{CER^t}{CET^{t}} \cdot 100 \]Where: \(CER^t\)is the gross final consumption of renewable energies (biomass, vegetable carbon, biogas, biofuels and other liquids, thermal solar, geothermal and renewable waste) in year t and \( GP^{t}\)is the total gross final consumption of energy, both renewable and non-renewable. in year t.
