There is no one-size-fits-all strategy. Energy production is a regional problem with regional solutions. You can't copy a strategy from somewhere else and expect it to work under different conditions without major changes.
In the Nordic countries, clean electricity is essentially a solved problem. The current mix of wind, hydro, and nuclear works well enough for now. Of course, the target is always moving. You can always do something better, and sometimes old solutions become obsolete. But right now, electricity generation is not a pressing issue. Heating, industrial processes, and transportation are more acute problems. Decarbonization of transportation is moving particularly slowly.
