Who is leading in renewable energy? | CNBC Explains

Around the world, governments are tapping into renewable sources to fuel the growing demand for energy. But as the conversation steers away from the costs of clean energy to the best practices, CNBC's Nessa Anwar evaluates which countries are having the most success and the challenges that still lie ahead.

    @peter that makes no sense, not all countries are sunny and windy, nor they have volcanoes to produce geothermal energy. If any country wants to switch from fosil fuel to renewables it must harvest its renewable resources, it's stupid to exclude hydropower l.

    Hydropower has the problem that if your country has a suitable location for it, it is most likely either in use already or protected. No or minimal chance of growth, so it makes the numbers look misleading. Now if we start building more wave/tidal power, that does need to be included. It is also rather not-green compared to others. You need to dam a river valley or dig a reservoir, destroying whatever forest habitat, local villages and natural beauty were there, risk creating mudslides or floods, block fish and boats from traveling the river, and the huge amount of concrete and other materials needed don't exactly help either. On the plus side you might get some tourists fishing in the reservoir, not exactly a fair trade.

    The difference is that hydro is dispatchable upon request, unlike variable sources like wind and solar. In other words it's very easy to have a lot of renewable electricity if you have the hydro resources but much more difficult from other renewable sources

    If you take Ireland for example, it has all of it's hydro resources exploited (as it's very easy and cheap to) but only amounts to 3% of electricity. Ireland would love to be able to have more hydro resources as its cheaper and far more reliable than the wind farms they are building en masse

    @@brick1907 That definitely helps keeping it in the game, but either you have a steadily flowing river and would like to use it, meaning you probably run pretty close to100% output and don't have anything to dispatch on request; or you keep some production in reserve for when needed, meaning unless you are paid for that untapped amount you lose money and if you are it raises the general price per kWh. Or your river is not a steady and reliable source of energy and you are running a pumped hydro energy storage. I don't think storage should be counted as renewable energy PRODUCTION, whether the original energy was produced with renewables or not.

    Trump did not say Renewable energy was bad quit the opposite, he said USA should not pay 3/4 the cost. China - India are way bigger polluters! He was saying we needed to make a better deal. Follow the money. Do some research. Let's see I bet you think TEXAS is a bad energy State. Nope #1 in Renewable energy yep more than CA. If it were a country it would be #4 in total Renewable energy production. Once people and business see Renewable energy saves money then will see the shift. Trump did not want the US tax payers to foot the bill for China to build new coal plants while taxing US to pay for it. Always always follow the MONEY.

There should be energy center gyms like that which support punching, kicking, lifting, jumping etc and convert it into energy. people can set up certain units as their goal...Finally Gymming will become a attractive job and coaches will be even more necessary to optimize the energy generation.

    I love renewables along with thought leaders like Lovins, McDonough and Jacobson. We also need to grow global renewables 5 times faster than we are presently. However, I have a real question: When it is super cold like -25 and -35 C as it was on the Canadian prairies for the past week renewables electricity generation share shrank to basically zero. Will geothermal, transmitting outside hydro, grid batteries, bidirectional electric vehicles along with biogas, high insulation and high efficiency do the job? Or do we keep fossil fuel plants, namely natural gas plants, operational for back up emergencies?

    Capacity(measured in W, a unit of power) isn't equal to generation(measured in Wh, a unit of energy). The capacity is the maximum output of electricity that a generator can produce under ideal conditions, meanwhile generation refers to the amount of electricity that IS produced over a specific period of time. So, according to the latest numbers from India, RES(renewable energy sources) account for 36 percent of the total power capacity while only 20 percent of the actual energy generation, which means that almost half of the installed RES capacity remains unrealised in India, when compared to the other sources of energy, much like most other spheres in India, where potential and capacity remains, but doesn't get realised or generated. Therefore, if India ranks 4th on your list, it doesn't really mean much. If anything, countries should be ranked based on generation.

    Thank you! Just a few comments - the problem with hydroelectric power is that hydroelectric dams destroy the environment at the same time. With increasing average temperatures, evaporation from large bodies of water is surely a concern? Also, they choke up rivers, inhibiting their natural flow and threatening to create what can be likened to an impending global thrombosis. In addition, large dams negatively impact natural river ecosystems - everything in nature is interconnected.. Wave power and electromagnetic power are viable options it seems. There are already EM trains - why not use this unlimited power source to greater effect?

    We have plenty of ethanol but I think a generally lower mixture in the USA. E85 which is mostly ethanol is available in some places but not everywhere, which has over 110 octane (compared to 93 octane premium gasoline). It's hard to calculate ethanol's true benefit in the USA... We make our ethanol from corn (I think Brazil makes theirs from sugar beets) which as a dual effect of less corn for human consumption and feedstock, and whether the petroleum products that are typically used to grow and deliver the processed corn is tryly a net benefit. Government subsidies also muddy the picture... subsidies may be essential to getting production up sufficiently to make economic sense for building the related infrastructure Additionally, only cars manufactured after 2007 can take E85 gas without modifications. Any earlier model cars need to invest in a "kit" that can cost in the neighborhood of about $700 to replace the fuel injectors, install a special ethanol sensor and reprogram the car's computer. Although I suppose it's YMMV on an individual basis, it should also be recognized that ethanol has a high water component which might affect some car systems, and despite the very high octane actually results in a much lower net miles per gallon... So it looks like E85 is priced at the pump very low so as not to be not a poorer deal than regular unleaded gas on cost per mile driven.
