Since there was a map with lots of comments (rightfully deleted) about electricity production, which was both wrong (N Macedonia and Moldova) and outdated (Portugal, Spain, Germany, Luxembourg, Bulgaria), here is not so pretty updated map, using the Our World in Data as a source (both for 2022 and 2023).

Edit: if anyone has an idea what would be a good color for country names, I’d be happy to change it next time. I feel that colors for sources are adequate (well, NG is purple because why not), but green is a meh choice for countries.
Edit 2: If UK keeps the pace from last year, they are likely to switch to wind. Czechia is almost equal between coal and nuclear, so they may also join the low carbon main source club next year. I doubt there will be other changes. In two years, two maybes are Ireland for wind and solar for Greece.
If we (Ukrainians) didn’t have our nuclear power plants, we would be literally fucked now. Our nuclear facilities provide a crucial source of energy, especially during these times when conventional power sources are under constant threat. Russians are constantly attacking our coal plants, and they would be happy to destroy the nuclear ones too – they are just afraid of international reaction. The strategic importance of our nuclear infrastructure cannot be overstated, as it not only powers our cities but also serves as a symbol of our resilience against aggression.
Any significant damage to these facilities could lead to catastrophic consequences, not just for Ukraine but for the entire region, raising the stakes in this ongoing conflict.
Great, I see you repaired all mistakes of previos map.
At least I think, I don’t know every source for every country, xd
i love that they picked the poop color for coal, because yeah.

Nuclear is the best. Coal is the worst. Solar is overhyped and wind is not that great.
I don’t understand how you got oil as the biggest source in Estonia. Could you explain? I’m pretty sure it’s oil shale not oil.
Water ia information we get our energy through information water ia not H2O, all we neeed is food water and energy /s
A map of carbon intensity of electricity production would be interesting after this one ! Luckily, we can check any time [here](https://app.electricitymaps.com/map/24h). And unsurprisingly, renewables still need huge backups to obtain worse results than nuclear. Meanwhile we’re flying past 1.5°C of global warming.
the sad part is we could be already yellow here in Czechia if we would spend these decades, we wasted on talks who is going to build with actual building the plants
