Breakdown: Penetration of Renewable Energy in Selected Markets

Since 2002, the penetration of non-hydro renewables in supply have increased from only 2 percent to 22 percent in 2012. The bulk of generation from new renewables, as in Portugal, is from wind energy. In 2011, wind energy contributed more than 15 percent of supply; solar more than 3 percent; and biomass nearly 2 percent.
