What does the EU electricity mix show?
Latest snapshot
In 2025, renewables account for 47.3 % of EU-27 electricity generation. France is the largest electricity generator among the countries shown, with 552 659 GWh. Denmark has the highest renewable share in the table, at 92.4 %. France has the highest nuclear share, at 67.5 %.
Electricity is not total energy
These shares refer only to electricity generation. They should not be confused with renewables as a share of gross final energy consumption, which also includes heating, transport and other uses.
How EnergyBoard avoids double counting
The renewable total uses the Eurostat aggregate for renewables and biofuels. Sub-components such as wind, solar and hydro are already included and are not added a second time.
How to read these data
All cards use the same year. Renewables are reconstructed from non-overlapping generation sources. “Fossil fuels and other” is the residual between total generation, nuclear and renewables.
