The table gives information about four types of fuel to produce power in five Asian countries in 2005. The units are measured in percentages.
It is clear from the table that each country mainly relied on one or two types of fuel for their power generation.
In Malaysia coal and lignite was the most used fuel for creating electricity with 61 percent. This is also the highest figure in the table. Singapore also made use of coal and lignite as a primary source of energy (42%), but it also relied on other types of fuel which made up 39 percent. Similarly, 42 percent of Thailand's power production came from other kinds of fuel. The second most common fuel type in Thailand was petroleum products with 36 percent.
South Korea, however, used the most hydro and wind energy (48%) to generate power. A third of its energy came from nuclear power plants. When it came to nuclear power, Japan had the highest percentage with 49 percent and it also made use of other kinds of sources (39%)
