Countries worldwide are generating electricity from renewable energy sources, though the exact count is not explicitly stated. Here are some key points about renewable energy production globally:

1. In 2021, renewables accounted for 28% of global electric generation, consisting of hydro (55%), wind (23%), biomass (13%), solar (7%), and geothermal (1%)[1].

2. China produced 31% of global renewable electricity, followed by the United States (11%), Brazil (6.4%), Canada (5.4%), and India (3.9%)[1].

3. By 2022, the share of renewables in the global power mix increased to nearly 30%, which is 10 percentage points above the 2010 level[4].

4. Many countries have significantly high percentages of renewable energy in their electricity production. For example:
- Norway: 98.5%
- Brazil: 89.2%
- New Zealand: 86.6%
- Colombia: 75.1%
- Canada: 68.8%
- Sweden: 68.5%
- Portugal: 61%
- Chile: 54.6%
- Germany: 44.4%
- United Kingdom: 43.3%[5]

5. Some countries, like Iceland, Ethiopia, Bhutan, Albania, and Paraguay, generate 100% of their electricity from renewable sources[1].

While an exact count is not provided, it's clear that a large majority of countries worldwide are incorporating renewable energy into their electricity production to varying degrees.
