L’indicatore Ab./MW vuol dire, per esempio, che in Unione europea a 27 ci sono poco più di 2mila abitanti per MW. Quindi minore è il numero di abitanti per MW migliore è la capacità elettrica da RES fornita in quel paese. Tuttavia, ho preferito sostituire tale indicatore con KW per abitanti perchè più immediato nella lettura e più comune; utilizzato per es. da Legambiente, Enea etc.
