Side by side

The same measurements, for every country you picked. Under each name is the time of its reading, in Romanian time — the sources publish independently, so they can differ.

The outlined cell is the best value in its row — among the countries picked here, not across Europe. It is marked only where "better" means something: more renewables, less carbon, a lower price. Consumption and production are not marked: more is neither better nor worse, only bigger.

The moments of the readings may differ between countries by a few minutes — the sources publish independently. Each country page shows the exact moment. The carbon values are estimates from the generation mix, not measurements.
