• About 40% of all primary energy use (all fossil fuels and renewables) goes into electricity generation
• About 60% goes to direct use (industry, transportation, heat, etc.)
• ~40% of all energy extracted or generated worldwide is first turned into electricity. - But due to conversion losses, electricity accounts for only ~20% of the energy people actually use at the point of consumption.
