What this grid depends on

Three measures that say more about a country than how much power it makes. Open “what this means” on any of them if the term is new.

Carbon intensity
571g CO₂e per kWh

Cleaner than 3 in 10 grids worldwide.

What this means

How much planet-warming gas is released to make one unit of electricity. Two countries can generate exactly the same amount and one of them be ten times dirtier doing it. Lower is better.

Electricity trade
Self-contained

Bosnia and Herzegovina generates almost exactly what it uses, with next to nothing crossing its borders.

What this means

Electricity can be sold across a border like anything else, through high-voltage lines connecting one country's grid to the next. Buying it in means leaning on a neighbour to keep the lights on. Selling it means generating more than the country needs.

Also true of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina's electricity is dirtier than the world average.

571 grams of CO2e a kilowatt-hour against a world figure of 458 — 25% above.
