This page presents data on the maximum net generating capacity of power plants and other installations that use renewable (including hydro) and nuclear energy sources to produce electricity in Annex 1 and select Non-Annex 1 countries.

Non-fossil fuel installed capacity

Country

Non-fossil installed capacity
  1. The non-fossil installed capacity represents the maximum net generating capacity of power plants and other installations that use renewable (including hydro) and nuclear energy sources to produce electricity.
  2. The data reflects the capacity installed and connected at the end of calendar year 2022.
  3. Unit: Gigawatts (GW).
Note on calculations
  1. Solar = On-grid Solar photovoltaic + Off-grid Solar photovoltaic + Concentrated solar power
  2. Wind = Onshore wind energy + Offshore wind energy
  3. Other Renewables = Solid biofuels + Liquid biofuels + Renewable municipal waste + Biogas + Geothermal energy + Marine energy
  4. Hydro = Renewable hydropower + Mixed Hydro Plants + Pumped storage
