Inspiration from this map came from a Wikipedia hole I fell into, where I learned that Paraguay runs entirely on renewable energy (mostly hydro power). This is a rare map where many developing nations perform better than the industrialized world.
Data comes from International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the most recent year available being 2022. The data also offers a breakdown by type of energy (wind, solar, hydro, etc.) if you are interested.
