The symmetry energy of nuclear matter is a fundamental ingredient in theinvestigation of exotic nuclei, heavy-ion collisions and astrophysicalphenomena. A recently developed quantum statistical (QS) approach that takesthe formation of clusters into account predicts low density symmetry energiesfar above the usually quoted mean field limits. A consistent description of thesymmetry energy has been developed that joins the correct low-density limitwith values calculated from quasi-particle approaches valid near the saturationdensity. The results are confronted with experimental values for free symmetryenergies and internal symmetry energies, determined at sub-saturation densitiesand temperatures below 10 MeV using data from heavy-ion collisions. There isvery good agreement between the experimental symmetry energy values and thosecalculated in the QS approach
