About This Dataset

Countries by Renewable Energy Share of Electricity 2024

Countries ranked by the percentage of national electricity generation provided by renewable sources including hydro, wind, solar, and biomass in 2024 according to IRENA and IEA data. Iceland generates virtually all of its electricity from renewable sources — approximately 99% from a combination of geothermal energy and hydropower, giving it one of the cleanest electricity systems on Earth and enabling it to export surplus renewable energy as embodied electricity in aluminium and green hydrogen products.

Analysis

The top three in Renewable Energy Share of Electricity (%) in 2024 are Bhutan (100), Iceland (99) and Norway (98). The 8 entries cover a range of 46, from 100 down to 54. First and second are separated by 1, so the leader sits inside the field rather than apart from it. The other 6 are bunched between 54 and 98.
