Description topics
- Electricity
- Flow of electrons used to light lamps or to operate washing machines. Electrons are elementary particles in an atom with a negative charge that flow by a potential difference.
- Production
- The amount of electricity generated by energy companies. Local generation, for example by hospitals or hotels, is not included.
- Total
- Total production of electricity.
- Fossil
- Fossil production of electricity.
Electricity produced with diesel generators.
- Renewable
- Renewable production of electricity.
Electricity produced with wind turbines.
- Mains water
- Production
- The volume of mains water produced by the water company. Local production, for example by hotels, is not included.
