Renewable energy use in leading greenhouse gas emitting countries
Climate Scorecard’s Global Spotlight Report focuses on renewable energy use in leading greenhouse gas emitting countries. As one might suspect, every country has the ability to reach 100% renewable energy use by mid-century if not much sooner. However, the main barrier to reaching this goal is in the lack of political and government support. The table highlights each country’s renewable energy focus and the position of its government towards renewable energy use. A fuller description of the status of each country’s use of renewable energy resources is provided in our Country Spotlight Reports that follow.
