Energy Data Analysis Using World Development Indicators

Description

This repository contains SQL scripts for analyzing global energy data sourced from the World Development Indicators database, last updated on September 19, 2024. The analysis focuses on key metrics related to energy access, GDP growth, and CO2 emissions across different countries.

Objectives

  • Create a database to store and manipulate energy-related data.
  • Generate summary statistics and averages for energy access, GDP, and CO2 emissions for specific years.
  • Conduct exploratory analyses to investigate the relationship between electricity access and economic growth.
  • Create views for streamlined access to specific datasets regarding electricity access, GDP, and CO2 emissions.
  • Analyze the impact of improved electricity access on GDP growth.

Included SQL Scripts

  • Database Creation: Script to create the energy_data database and table schema.
  • Data Analysis Queries: SQL queries to compute averages, summarize data, and analyze relationships.
  • View Definitions: Views for electricity access, GDP, and CO2 emissions data.
  • Analysis of Economic Growth: Investigations into the correlation between electricity access improvement and GDP growth.

Technologies Used

  • SQL
  • Power BI
  • GitHub

Usage

  1. Clone the repository: 
    git clone https://github.com/ZainabM872/energy-data-analysis.git

Key Findings

  • Electricity Access: There has been a significant increase in electricity access in many countries between 2000 and 2020.
  • GDP Growth: Countries that improved their electricity access tended to have higher GDP growth rates.
  • CO2 Emissions: A correlation was observed between increased electricity access and changes in CO2 emissions per capita, with implications for sustainable development.
