Is Canada taking a leading role in producing and using renewable energy?
Canada ranks among the top five countries on this indicator and earns a “B” grade, behind the “A” performers: Norway, Switzerland, Sweden, and France. Canada can look to its peers to further increase the share of low-emitting electricity production in total electricity production. Almost all of Norway’s electricity was generated from renewable hydroelectric sources in 2006. In Switzerland and Sweden, over 90 per cent of electricity supply was produced using renewable and low-emitting sources.
