The given chart illustrates the proportion of energy which was produced in total energy supply in four countries namely Australia, Sweden, Iceland and Turkey during a thirteen-year period commencing from 1997.
Overall, there was an upward trend in the percentage of renewable energy in Iceland and Sweden, with Iceland witnessing a more dramatic rise, while a downward trend was seen in Australia and Turkey. In addition, Iceland consistently had the highest figures throughout the period.
The figure for renewable energy in Iceland started at 45% in 1997, after which it experienced a substantial rise to 60% in 2000, before ending the period at 70% in the next ten years. Similar changes could be seen in Sweden, increasing from 5% in 1997 to 6% in 2000 before growing to 9% in 2010.
38% of renewable energy was generated in Turkey in 1997, with a subsequent slight increase decrease to a peak of 40% in 2000 and a final drop to 32% in 2010. Similarly, the percentage of renewable energy in Australia decreased from 9% in 1997 to 8% in 2010, followed by a decline before declining to 6% in 2010.
