Electricity is becoming a more and more critical part of modern life. This flexible energy is used for heating, cooling, appliances, TV, computers, transportation and a myriad of other uses. Electricity use is on the rise in the world, and here are the top 25 countries in terms of energy consumption per capita. All values are in kWh or kilowatt hours and are provided by the CIA World Factbook. You will notice that the top five countries experience particularly cold winters, suggesting that much of their electricity is used for heating.

WA KKG is wrong - the website he got it from shows how stupid knowledgable people can be. It leaves out the USA and the UK completely and says Cyprus consumes no electricity at all! It claims to take its facts from the CIA World Factbook - but when you check this you find
1) USA
2)China
3)Japan
4)Russia
5)Canada
6)India
7)Germany
8)France
9)Brazil
10)UK
