Energy Consumption Per Capita by Country: Top 5

4. Curacao

Energy use (kg of oil equivalent per capita) in 2014/2015: 12,651

Many island nations are dependent on importing fossil fuels from the outside, since they don’t have the resources themselves. Over 95% of Curacao’s electricity is produced from petroleum-based fuels which is why the country is quite susceptible to fluctuations in global oil prices.
