Electric energy consumption is the form of energy consumption that uses electric energy. ------------------------------------------------- Overview Consumption of electric energy is measured by W·h (Watt x Hour):^). 1 W·h = 3600 joule = 859.8 calorie energy in one year. Electric/Electronics devices consume electric energy to generate desired output(i.e. light‚ heat‚ kinetic etc.)‚ while its operation some part of energy are consumed in unintended output. see Electrical efficiency In 2008‚ world

Why do energy policies differ from country to country? Energy policies‚ the manner in which a governments decides to address issues of energy development including energy production‚ distribution and consumption‚ are different in every country around the globe. This is mainly due to economic development‚ population size‚ geographical location and many other factors for example in the UK‚ as gas imports will rise in the future‚ the government has imposed a policy of trying to encourage the development

Despite the fact that the consumption is not picturing a significant amount of growth‚ according to UNCTAD (2012)‚ in the same period crude oil load capacity reached 1.8 billion tons and has an account for approximately one third of the total world seaborne trade. Meanwhile‚ global consumption of coal has increased significantly in the same period. As BP (2012) mentioned
