Italy electricity production by source Italy renewable electricity production by source. In 2018, gross electricity production in Italy reached 289.7 TWh, down 2.1% compared to 2017; [9] thermal power stations ensured 66.5% of production and renewable energies 33.5%: hydraulic 17.4%, solar 7.8%, wind 6.1% and geothermal 2.1% (note: this statistic includes biomass and waste in the thermal).

Italy benefits from significant hydroelectric potential, particularly in the Alps, but it is already almost fully exploited; During the first half of the 20th century, hydroelectricity covered almost all of the country's electricity needs. The map of solar radiation in Italy reveals high potentials in southern Italy, particularly in Sicily and ...
Renewable energy has developed rapidly in Italy over the past decade and provided the country a means of diversifying from its historical dependency on imported fuels. Solar power accounted for around 8% of the total electric production in the country in 2014, making Italy the country with the highest contribution from solar energy in the world that year. [2]

Electric power production in Italy from 1883 to 2012: hydroelectricity (in blue) remained almost the same since the 1950s. Since the Italian peninsula is relatively recent geological formation, it lacks commercial coal deposits and oil, so hydroelectricity was the first source widely used in Italy to produce electric energy, [4] and remained the main source at least until the 1960s.
This is a list of countries and dependencies by electricity generation from renewable sources each year. Renewables accounted for 28% of electric generation in 2021, consisting of hydro (55%), wind (23%), biomass (13%), solar (7%) and geothermal (1%).
World electric generation by country and source in 2022 [1] This is a list of countries and dependencies by annual electricity production. China is the world's largest electricity producing country, followed by the United States and India. Data are for the year 2022 and are sourced from Ember. [1]
This is a list of electric generation, consumption, exports and imports by country. Data are for the year 2021 and are from the EIA. [1] Figures are in terawatt-hours (TWh). Links for each location go to the relevant electricity market page, when available.
