This is a list of countries and dependencies by electricity generation from renewable sources each year. Renewables accounted for 28% of electric generation in 2021, consisting of hydro (55%), wind (23%), biomass (13%), solar (7%) and geothermal (1%).
English: Horizontal bar chart showing % share of electricity generated by wind power, by country - Ember Review data Source: Global Electricity Review 2022. Ember 27 (March 2022). Archived from the original on 30 March 2022. Source says: "2021 data used where available, else 2020."
The Global Wind Atlas is a web-based application developed to help policymakers and investors identify potential high-wind areas for wind power generation virtually anywhere in the world, and perform preliminary calculations. It provides free access to data on wind power density and wind speed at multiple heights using the latest historical ...
Global map of wind speed at 100 meters on land and around coasts. [12] Distribution of wind speed (red) and energy (blue) for all of 2002 at the Lee Ranch facility in Colorado. The histogram shows measured data, while the curve is the Rayleigh model distribution for the same average wind speed. Global map of wind power density potential [13]
In 2022, wind supplied over 2,304 TWh of electricity, which was 7.8% of world electricity. With about 100 GW added during 2021, mostly in China and the United States , global installed wind power capacity exceeded 800 GW. 32 countries generated more than a tenth of their electricity from wind power in 2023 and wind generation has nearly tripled ...
