Seven countries—Albania, Bhutan, Nepal, Paraguay, Iceland, Ethiopia and the Democratic Republic of Congo—generated more than 99.7 percent of their electricity from renewable sources in 2021-2022, while an additional 40 countries produced at least 50 percent from renewables, according to data from the International Energy Agency and International Renewable Energy Agency. Researchers predict solar energy will dominate global electricity supplies by 2050 due to improving efficiency rates and falling commercial costs, with scientists claiming the world has reached an "irreversible tipping point" toward clean energy transition.
