However, due to conservation mandates, generally decent weather in more populous areas, and strict environmental guidelines, its ''per capita'' energy consumption is one of the smallest of any state in Cartadania. Verona leads the nation in total net electricity production, generating 315.5 TWh in 2024. Most of the states power comes from natural gas, clean coal, and nuclear. With the exception of some power plants in the Palm Coast area and northern Verona, majority of the power plants are located in the state's interior. | ||

Northern Verona is also used for solar energy due to it straddling the equator. | Verona has a large potential for renewable energy.
