The incentive to use 100% renewable energy is created by global warming and ecological as well as economic concerns, post peak oil. Share of electricity production from renewables, 2023 [46] The first country to propose 100% renewable energy was Iceland, in 1998. [47] Proposals have been made for Japan in 2003, [48] and for Australia in 2011. [49]
Renewable energy in Albania includes biomass, geothermal, hydropower, solar, and wind energy. [1] Albania relies mostly on hydroelectric resources, therefore, it has difficulties and shortages when water levels are low. The climate in Albania is Mediterranean, so it possesses considerable potential for solar energy production. [2]
China produced 31% of global renewable electricity, followed by the United States (11%), Brazil (6.4%), Canada (5.4%) and India (3.9%). [1] Renewable investment reached almost $500 billion globally in 2022, [2] amounting to 83% of new electric capacity that year. [3] The renewable energy industry employs almost 14 million people. [4]
Renewable energy technology was once seen as unaffordable for developing countries. [200] However, since 2015, investment in non-hydro renewable energy has been higher in developing countries than in developed countries, and comprised 54% of global renewable energy investment in 2019. [201]
