Biomass is the third largest source of energy in the Philippines, and the largest source of renewable energy.
Since the Fukushima nuclear disaster of 2011, Japanese energy policies have shifted significantly towards renewable energy sources. Japan remains considerably ahead of its solar capacity targets.
Currently, there are only around 500 biogas plants in Poland, totalling 231 MW of installed capacity. However, the country is on track to have 1 GW of capacity by 2025.
Jordan’s solar capacity has been rapidly increasing in recent years, with large-scale solar projects primarily driving this transition. By the end of 2023, Jordan is expected to have 2.7 GW of installed solar capacity.
Over 2 GW of installed hydropower capacity in the Czech Republic generate almost 2 TWh per year. This represents over 2% of the country’s total generation.
With its 81 GW of installed hydropower capacity, Canada produces over 400 TWh of electricity from hydro per year. It is the fourth largest producer of electricity from hydro in the world.
China boasts more than half of the world’s small hydro installed capacity (as of 2014). Between 2005 and 2008 especially, significant growth of small hydro installations occurred around the world but in China above all. Small hydro is seen as more sustainable than larger hydroplants as the impact on the surroundings is drastically reduced.
Hydropower is the second largest source of renewable electricity in the USA, after wind. With over 100 GW of installed capacity, 260 TWh of electricity are generated by hydropower per year.
Wind now represents the largest source of renewable energy in the US, with almost 380 TWh generated in 2021.
