"Every year, energy supermajor BP Plc performs a much-needed service for
economists, analysts and long-term planners everywhere with its annual
Statistical Review of World Energy. Published since the 1960s, it’s a trove
of data on energy production and consumption, power generation, trade flows and
other aspects of today’s energy system.

The publication always rewards a close look at bothlong-term trends and notable
near-term changes. I could probably draw out dozens of meaningful trends, if I
(and readers) had the time for them, but I will highlight four here."

Summarized:

1. Renewables are now 13% of global power generation
2. Wind and solar now generate more than nuclear power
3. China is now the world’s biggest importer of liquefied natural gas
4. China generates more renewable electricity than Europe
