In 2019, hydro power use dominated the renewable energy mix in countries such as: Austria (76%), Bulgaria (48%), Croatia (74%), Finland (43%), France (53%), Italy (41%), Latvia (73%), Romania (65%), Slovakia (65%) and Sweden (66%).
Wind energy, on the other hand, dominated the structure of renewable energy sources in countries such as: Belgium (48%), Cyprus (45%), Denmark (69%), Germany (50%), Greece (42%), Ireland (86%), Lithuania (55%), Netherlands (49%), Poland (57%), Portugal (43%) and Spain (52%).
In 2019, countries such as Sweden, Finland and the Netherlands had the largest share of renewable energy use in transport (30.31%, 21.29%, and 12.51%, respectively).
For renewable energy use in electricity, countries such as Austria, Sweden and Denmark led the way.
When it comes to renewable energy use in heating and cooling, countries such as Sweden, Latvia and Finland were the leaders: 66.12%, 57.76%, and 57.49%.
In contrast, the lowest renewable energy consumption occurred in countries such as:
In transport—Cyprus, Lithuania and Greece.
In electricity—Malta, Cyprus and Hungary.
In heating and cooling—Ireland, the Netherlands and Belgium.
During the period under review, the biggest changes in renewable energy consump‐ tion took place in countries such as: Malta (in 2009, the shares of renewable energy con‐ sumption especially in transport, electricity were 0.00, while in 2019, they were already close to the EU average), Estonia (the share of renewable energy consumption in transport has increased more than tenfold), Cyprus (the share of renewable energy consumption in electricity has increased more than 16‐fold), and Slovakia (the share of renewable energy consumption in heating and cooling has more than doubled).
Despite the significant increase in renewable energy consumption, most of the countries mentioned are still characterized by the lowest percentage of renewable energy use.

Iceland is rich in geothermal resources due to the volcanic activity, and heat flow through the crust is several times higher than the world average. Traditionally the geothermal fields are divided into high- temperature fields, where temperature above 200°C is found at 1 km depth, and low-temperature fields, in which temperature is lower than 150°C in the uppermost kilometre. Some 30 high temperature fields have been identified in Iceland, all within the active volcanic zone as shown in Figure 1.
Geothermal energy has become the main source of energy in Iceland supplying over 65% of the primary energy used in the country.
The United States have the highest installed capacity, followed by the Philippines and Indonesia. Three European countries are amongst the TOP 10: Turkey, Italy, and Iceland.
