In plain words
91.2% of electricity output
What it is. Electricity generated from renewable sources (hydropower, solar, wind, geothermal and others) as a share of total electricity output.
Higher is better. A rise in renewable electricity share is generally good news; a fall, bad news.
Why it matters. A percentage puts countries of different sizes on the same footing, so it can be compared across borders and over time.
