Using word ‘percentage’ in a sentence

Hey,

Can you please help me with word selection. Which of the options in the bracket below is the most appropriate:


'Percentage of heating energy (in/ within/of / out of/ from/ to / over) the overall consumed energy'

Also, would you rather use a different word to replace ‘percentage’ e.g. (percent/ ratio/ rate/ share/ contribution/ percentage ratio or something else)


Thank you

Alek
