Note: Unless otherwise noted, all targets and corresponding shares represent all renewables including hydropower. Actual percentages are rounded to the nearest whole decimal for numbers over 10% except where associated targets are expressed differently. A number of state/provincial and local jurisdictions have additional targets not listed here. The United States and Canada have de facto state and provincial-level targets through existing RPS policies, but no national targets (see Tables R17 and R19). Some countries shown have other types of targets (see Tables R12, R14, and R15). See Policy Landscape section (Section 4) and Reference Table R19 for more information about sub-national targets. Existing shares are indicative and may need adjusting if more accurate national statistical data are published. Sources for reported data often do not specify the accounting method used, therefore shares of electricity are likely to include a mixture of different accounting methods and thus are not directly comparable or consistent across countries. Where shares sourced from Observ'ER differed from those provided to REN21 by country contributors, the latter were given preference. Source: See Endnote 13 for this section.
