- iamawacko 3y agoSeattle City Light, according to a 2016 report (and its definitely improved since), was 88% Hydro, 5% nuclear, and 4% wind. https://app.electricitymaps.com/map https://app.electricitymaps.com/map reports Seattle City Light as 100% hydro, fwiw.
- lytfyre 3y agoBC Hydro (British Columbia electric power utility, government owned) was 98% renewable sources in 2022, ~91% of that hydro[1] - for the entire province. that last 2% is going to take a lot of work to replace, but I'd be surprised to see it backslide.
