How it is measured: The share of total electricity production that comes from natural gas, excluding natural gas liquids. World Bank indicator EG.ELC.NGAS.ZS; most recent year available per country, regional and income aggregates excluded.

Use this page to check who is number one right now, compare any two entries head to head, or test yourself with the quiz, which asks you to name all ten in three minutes. Year-end archives are available for 2026, freezing the ranking as it stood at the close of each year. Top10Earth never estimates or edits a value: each number is fetched from its source, hashed, stored and ranked by software, then checked by a quality gate before it is published. If a refresh fails the gate, the previous snapshot stays live and the problem is reviewed by a person.
