If we are talking just electrical grid power then Sweden is 95% there on a mix of nuclear and hydro.
Edit: I acknowledge that hydro only works if the geography gods have been extremely kind.
- macspoofing 7y agoYes! So is my home province (http://live.gridwatch.ca/home-page.html http://live.gridwatch.ca/home-page.html). No point in investing in solar and wind here (but we still do because it makes people feel good) Hydro and geothermal is great if you have the right geography. Nuclear works everywhere. Places that achieved this level of carbon-free emissions always have a mix of some or all three technologies, like my province, Sweden, Costa Rica, France, and unlike Germany (which doubled down on solar and wind and Russian natural gas).
