<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\nRenewable electricity sources are defined as renewable non-fossil sources of energy, such as: hydropower, geothermal, solar and wind power; solid biomass; biogas, liquid biofuels, etc.<\/p>\n
The indicator “Renewable electricity” measures the share of electricity produced from renewable sources in gross national electricity production (in percentage).<\/p>\n
The gross national electricity consumption is a sum of the total gross production and import of electricity minus electricity exported.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

What is the share of electrcity originating from renewable sources in the gross electricity consumption in the Republic of Macedonia?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/span>Key message<\/div>\nThe share of electrcity originating from renewable sources in the gross electricity consumption in the Republic of Macedonia is rather low. It makes relatively high annual fluctuation depending on hydrological conditions, considering that so far only hydro and solar power from among renewable sources contribute to electricity production from renewable sources. Efforts should be made to utilize other renewable sources for electricity production.<\/p>\n
There was a variable trend in the rate of renewably energy sources utilization during the analyzed period. In 2010, resulting from favourable hydrological conditions, the share of renewable electricity in the total gross electricity consumption was the highest amounting 28%, while the lowest share was recorded in 2001 amounting 9.2%.<\/p>\n
