Brazil Energy Use per Capita
Energy use per capita EG.USE.PCAP.KG.OE
Brazil's energy use per capita was 1,502 in 2025, ranked 76th globally. This represents a 1.4% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Brazil's energy use per capita stood at 1,502 in 2025, a rise of +20 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 1,502 by 2025. Brazil ranked 76th globally.
Brazil's Energy Use per Capita has experienced fluctuations over the past 35 years, with a notable trend of moderate growth. The country's all-time peak of 1,522.42 in 2014 was surpassed by Algeria, which posted a slightly higher value of 1,540.57. Conversely, the all-time trough of 937.43 in 1992 serves as a benchmark for Brazil's energy consumption per capita. While the most recent value of 1,501.59 in 2025 indicates a decline from the peak, it remains higher than the trough value. Brazil's energy consumption per capita has generally trended upward, albeit with some year-to-year variability. North Macedonia's relatively lower value of 1,447.02 suggests that Brazil may not be among the top performers in this category. A potential increase in Brazil's domestic energy production or a shift towards more energy-intensive industries could alter the country's trajectory in energy use per capita.
