The difference in production and consumption of energy from any source is bridged through external trade (i.e. export or import) of energy from the same source. All the values are given in Terawatt-hours (Twh).



 

Q. Which year registered the highest external trade in the energy sector? 

Detailed Solution for IIFT Data Interpretation MCQ Quiz - 2 - Question 1

External trade = | Imports coal | + | Imports crude oil I + I Imports Natural gas I + I Imports Nuclear I + I Imports others I

From the table, the external trade is highest in the year 2013.
