BP Statistical Review of World Energy

Annual flagship energy statistics covering production, consumption, and prices by country and fuel type. Based on the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2020 (69th edition), with data through 2019.

Background

The BP Statistical Review of World Energy is one of the most widely cited sources of global energy data. Published annually since 1952, it covers oil, gas, coal, nuclear, hydro, and renewables across 60+ countries and regions, alongside price series for crude oil, natural gas, and coal going back to the 1970s and 1980s.

Data

All files are in data/ in long format (one row per country per year), except the price files which are wide format (one row per year, one column per benchmark).
