Years differ between countries and each is printed above. Albania's figure is 2023 from a second source; the rest are 2025. Read this as a spread, not as a like-for-like league table.

The decision behind this figure

A country's own mix, demand and trade position — read together rather than metric by metric — is the starting point for any system study. Six countries do not share one answer to what comes next.
