Dataset available for Latin-American and Caribbean Countries since 1970-2017 (Except Bahamas)

This indicator corresponds to the ratio of primary energy supply coming from renewable source of the primary energy supply by each country.

Renewable primary energy supply refers to energy from non-fossil resources of relatively short or continuous periods of formation, that is, under a rational exploitation regime, and its availability does not decrease over time.

Primary energy: refers to different energy sources, as they are obtained in nature, either directly, such as hydropower, wind, solar, firewood and other vegetable fuels; or after an extraction process, such as oil, coal, geothermal, among others.
