Supplementary notes
According to the source, the energy intensity of GDP shows the relation between the total amount of energy consumed and the GDP of a country. A low ratio indicates that less energy is used to produce a unit of product and as this ratio increases, the amount of energy required to produce a monetary unit of economic production increases.
