Electricity production from coal sources > % of total	68.52 %		[11th of 69]
DEFINITION: Sources of electricity refer to the inputs used to generate electricity. Coal refers to all coal and brown coal, both primary (including hard coal and lignite-brown coal) and derived fuels (including patent fuel, coke oven coke, gas coke, coke oven gas, and blast furnace gas). Peat is also included in this category.		View time series

imports > kt of oil equivalent	17,073 kt of oil equivalent		[24th of 130]
DEFINITION: Energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter.		View time series

imports, net > % of energy use	99.72 %		[1st of 130]
DEFINITION: Net energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter. Energy use refers to use of primary energy before transformation to other end-use fuels, which is equal to indigenous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
