57 per cent of Sweden’s power was generated from renewables last year. A regulatory official has stated Sweden is on track to run completely on renewable energy in the next 25 years.

Generally when someone says renewable energy, solar power and wind farms are first things that come to mind. Hydropower and geothermal energy might sometimes get a bit of attention, but many are not aware of the many other vast sources of renewable energy currently being utilized around the world.

“What is the difference between solar energy and geothermal energy?” It’s not the most common question however I do get it thrown at me every once in a while and on that basis I thought it’s time to clarify for the views.
