Each rectangle's area is proportional to energy consumed (EJ). The treemap exposes the brutal arithmetic of transition: China alone consumes more coal than the rest of the world combined, and its total energy use dwarfs every other nation here. The USA's outsized gas consumption reflects the shale revolution. France and Germany show opposite strategies — France leans on nuclear for 33% of its energy; Germany's nuclear phase-out left fossil fuels filling the gap. Brazil's large green block is mostly hydro and biofuels, not wind or solar. Use the filter buttons or click any fuel in the legend to compare a single fuel across all countries.
