I also got nervous on spot checking but seems like some countries genuinely do not have grid electricity. IEA had Niger at 983GWh of grid electricity in 2023, less output than one small 120MW gas plant. https://www.iea.org/countries/niger/electricity

Sorry for the slowness. The 115GW is installed capacity, not current output. That's the standard way to report it, both units are reported in watts.

Hah, I intentionally turned it on to record a video but consistent feedback has been that it's bad, so it is default off now!

Sorry about that. Are you on desktop or mobile, and iOS in particular? Just want to make sure I understand what you're seeing.

This is my mistake, mobile is/was a mess and I was only really looking at desktop before posting. It was buried behind the misplaced bottom bar. Fixed now.
