Analysis
In 2025, primary energy from low-carbon energy in Venezuela stood at 73.28 terawatt-hours.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 0.1% on the previous year and down 2.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, primary energy from low-carbon energy in Venezuela peaked at 86.71 terawatt-hours in 2008 and was at its lowest, 1.37 terawatt-hours, in 1965.
That places Venezuela 37th out of 77 countries with data for 2025, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
