Among the CIS and Central Asian countries, according to Index Mundi analysts, the highest level of electricity consumption per capita is observed in Russia (6.4 thousand kWh per person per year), Kazakhstan (4.9 thousand kWh per person) and Belarus (3.3 thousand kWh per person), El.kz reports with reference to the Energyprom.kz.

The lowest rates were recorded in Moldova (1.3 thousand kWh per person), Tajikistan (1.5 thousand kWh per person) and Uzbekistan (1.6 thousand kWh per person).

Globally, Iceland, Norway and Kuwait had the highest rates among the 213 countries monitored in 2020, while the lowest rates were recorded in Africa's Chad, Guinea-Bissau and the Central African Republic (excluding the sparsely populated Northern Mariana Islands).

The most favorable conditions are quite predictably observed in the same three countries. So, in Russia, taking into account the ratio of tariffs and incomes, the amount of kWh available for the average annual income is about 232.1 thousand kWh per year and, accordingly, 19.3 thousand kWh per month.

In Kazakhstan, the figures are similar: the average annual income here is available 221.8 thousand kWh per year and 18.5 thousand kWh per month.
