World Energy Usage: Statistics?

[datapencil]

I am curious about world energy usage statistics. Does anyone know of any resources where I can find a list of countries along with a breakdown of each country's energy sources. I would like to find out what percentage is oil power, coal power, nuclear power, wind power, solar power, etc.

I cannot find a resource like that myself and am also looking for any ideas about how we could start one. I realize it would have to be a group project involving a lot of research and dynamic programming abilities.

Any ideas are appreciated!

Here is one site I found that might be of interest:

http://earthtrends.wri.org/index.php

It has pdf files for the various countries:
Here is for Norway: http://earthtrends.wri.org/pdf_libra...ne_cou_578.pdf

US:
http://earthtrends.wri.org/pdf_libra...ne_cou_840.pdf

You can also look up various variables in their database:

The website has information about other topics than energy too. Economics, biodiversity, water resources, pollution etc.

You may have to register at the site to avoid some annoying nag screens that asks you to register once in a while. It is free to register, though.
