Over the years since the introduction of power and electricity, the usage has dramatically increased along with the increasing population and use of electrical equipment.
Here is a link to view global energy usage scales. http://bit.ly/qMDxrh
New Zealand is a net importer of energy, and that energy is in the form of oil products. However approximately 35% of our primary energy is Renewable.
New Zealand is one of the 13 OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries that do not use Nuclear Power. Approximatly 35% of our primary energy is from renewable resources.
In comparison with the rest of the world our consumption is rather central and in terms of energy intensity, New Zealand is just a little lower than the global average.
