Scope
Energy
Action line
Diversify the energy supply and reduce fossil fuel dependency
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
\[PCRE^t=\frac{CRE^t}{CE^{t}} \cdot 100 \]
Where: \(CRE^t\) 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 \(CE^{t}\) is the total gross final consumption of energy, both renewable and non-renewable, in year t.
