Renewable energy has the real potential to become the primary source of electricity for countries that currently account for 99% of global carbon emissions. In fact, by 2040, the world will be largely powered by renewable energy. But making this future a reality will require a major push of social and political will. Some countries are already making the shift to clean, renewable energy. Read more to find out which countries are ahead of the curve in renewable energy.

Hope for an energy grid completely powered by renewable energy may seem unreachable, given our current heavy reliance on fossil-fueled sources and the fear that renewables wouldn’t generate energy consistently enough to ensure grid stability. But a new study from Stanford University indicates that such a world is far from far-fetched.

Compared to wind energy, solar panels are the better choice for your home because solar provides a more predictable energy source, may cost less in the long-term, requires less space, and causes less disruption to the environment. Ultimately, solar panels are the better renewable energy source for your home compared to wind turbines because they are more reliable at generating power in all conditions and more compatible with different property types.
