Abstract
As energy demand rises and fossil fuel reserves become scarcer, energy planning grows to be necessary to every country including Honduras. The mapping of electricity consumption in Honduras through data visualization tools as Tableau, proposed in this paper, is a significant step toward the goal of creating instruments that increase energy planning. This instrument provides relevant information of the electricity demand behaviour: it was discovered that only 18 municipalities from the total of 259 municipalities studied consumed 80% of the electrical resource. It was also found the close-fitting relationship between Human Development Index (HDI) and Electricity Consumption per capita concluding that electrical consumption has great impact in the development of municipalities in Honduras and for this reason is necessary to change the actual context in which this resource is distributed unequally in the national territory.
