That's not a measure of efficiency, that's a measure of consumption.

Efficiencies measure a relationship between two or more things. Things like; the most Kwh/unit of resource, or Kwh/$ spent, for production measures. Or for environmental measures, things like; the lowest amount of pollutants/unit of resource, and the highest amounts of pollutants/$ spent.

I think Germany was but they were using nuclear power and are now phasing that out...I also heard they use 30% solar power.

I think the UK is supposed to be working on it (at least the politicians acknowledge it)...

this article is about the top ten energy efficient...the first listed is Japan

Certainly the most significant country is the US.You might find a country like Switzerland who is marginally more efficient but their economy is less than numerous states.We do not use too much resources.That is a notion invented by the left.

not china.
