What the numbers say
In 2023, Fragility, Conflict, and Violence (FCV) situations' electricity production from oil, gas and coal sources (% of total) fell 71.57 percentage points on 2022 (from 75.6% to 4.03%).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1993 to 2022), the average change was +0.13 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 1.38 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 52.0 standard deviations below that average, so it was unusually large compared with the rest of the record.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 3.86 percentage points in 2008 and the biggest yearly fall was 71.57 percentage points in 2023. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2014 to 2023 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 29% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

What this measures
The share of electricity production from oil, gas and coal sources of total electricity production. Sources of electricity refer to the inputs used to generate electricity. Oil refers to crude oil and petroleum products. Gas refers to natural gas but excludes natural gas liquids. Coal refers to all coal and brown coal, both primary (including hard coal and lignite-brown coal) and derived fuels (including patent fuel, coke oven coke, gas coke, coke oven gas, and blast furnace gas). Peat is also included in this category.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average using total electricity production as weights.
