Jan 5, 2026 - Renewable Energy Leading Countries from 1960 - 2025

From 1960 to 2025, renewable energy excluding hydro (primarily solar, wind, bioenergy, geothermal and marine sources) moved from virtually no global electricity generation to becoming a central part of the world’s energy mix: early interest in solar and wind began in the 1960s–1970s with research and small demonstration projects, and commercial wind turbines appeared in the 1980s and 1990s as costs fell and policies supported clean energy. Since 2000, solar and wind capacity expanded rapidly—global renewable capacity (including solar, wind, bioenergy and geothermal) grew from under a terawatt in the early 2000s to several terawatts by the early 2020s, with solar photovoltaics and wind dominating new additions and accounting for the vast majority of net renewable capacity growth by 2024–25. Solar has become the single fastest-growing electricity source worldwide and wind also expanded strongly, while bioenergy and geothermal contributed smaller but steady additions, making non-hydro renewables a major contributor to global electricity capacity by 2025.
