The bp Statistical Review of World Energy is a venerable survey of the world’s energy production and consumption — the oil giant has been publishing it yearly since 1952. It’s an extremely detailed report — it lists the amounts of energy generated and consumed, as well as the means of generation, for just about every country […].

However, the resulting low gas prices, as well as clean air and climate policies, will promote further switching to gas from other more polluting energy sources, such as oil and coal. The pandemic has created disruption in the global energy sector, but low gas prices will ultimately stimulate demand growth as the economy recovers.
