Verona's significant population places it among the leading energy consumers in Cartadania. However, stringent conservation mandates, favorable weather conditions in populous areas, and strict environmental regulations have kept its ''per capita'' energy consumption relatively low compared to other states in the country. Verona is a major contributor to the national energy grid, generating a total net electricity production of 315.5 TWh in 2024. The majority of the state's power comes from natural gas, hydroelectric, and nuclear energy sources. With the exception of some power plants located in the Palm Coast area and northern Verona, most of the state's power plants are situated in its interior regions. | |||
Verona | Verona is rich in renewable energy resources, and there is substantial potential for their development in the state. The southern interior and counties that border Santiago are predominantly flat, making them ideal for wind farms. Northern Verona, which straddles the equator, is suitable for solar energy generation due to the ample sunlight it receives. | ||
