Renewable energy in India
India is the world's 3rd largest consumer of electricity and has the world's 3rd largest renewable energy installed capacity. Renewable sources account for more than 50% of India's total installed electricity capacity, a target achieved in 2025, five years ahead of schedule under its Paris Agreement commitments.
Renewable energy in Norway
Norway is a heavy producer of renewable energy because of hydropower. Around 88% of electricity production in Norway is from 1971 hydropower plants with a combined production capacity of over 40 GW (87 TWh reservoir capacity, storing water from summer to winter).
Renewable energy in California
California produces more renewable energy than any other state in the United States except Texas. In 2018, California ranked first in the nation as a producer of electricity from solar, geothermal, and biomass resources and fourth in the nation in conventional hydroelectric power generation.
Renewable energy in Italy
Renewable energy developed rapidly in Italy between 2005 and 2023, nearly doubling, and provided the country with a means of diversifying from its historical dependency on imported fuels. Solar power accounted for around 17% of the total electric production in the country in 2025.
Renewable portfolio standards in the United States
A Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) is a regulation that requires the increased production of energy from renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal, which have been adopted in 38 of 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. The United States federal RPS is called the Renewable…
