The chart shows the proportion of renewable energy in total energy supply in 4 countries from 1997 to 2010

The chart gives information about the percentages of renewable energy in total energy supply in four countries, namely Australia, Sweden, Iceland and Turkey between 1997 and 2010. As can be clearly seen, the highest proportion of this energy belonged to Iceland during the period given.

To be more specific, in 1997, roughly a half of the total energy production in Iceland was from renewable resources. This figure moderately rose to 60 per cent and 70 per cent in 2000 and 2010, respectively, making Iceland the country with the largest figures among four nations. Similar pattern was observed in Sweden with the proportion of renewable resources increasing by 5 per cent to nearly a tenth in the 13-year period. The figure for Turkey also enjoyed an upward trend from 36 per cent to just over 40 per cent between 1997 and 2000 before dropping to around a third ten years later.

By contrast, Australia was the country that experienced a decline in the percentage of renewable energy. In 1997, there was only 9 per cent of the total energy supply generated from renewable sources. This figure slowly decreased by half, hitting the lowest position of the four countries in 2010.
