Renewable energy is a core type of the energy resources. It can be also distinct as the energy which is obtained from the sources which are repeatedly replenished on an individual timescale like as Winds, tides, rain, sunlight, waves and geothermal heat. It is the major source of energy in the world as according to an estimate almost 16% of global energy utilization is obtained from the renewable resources. From which 10% of the all energy is obtained from the traditional biomass primarily used for heating purpose. While on the other hand 3.4% is obtained through hydroelectricity. At present latest renewable small hydro, modern biomass, solar, geothermal, wind and bio-fuels accounted for another 3% and these are mounting quickly.

In various countries renewable electricity is being produced at diverse scale. Some countries have a large number while some nations are producing on low scale. But in this article we will only discuss the top ten countries of the world which are considered to be the largest producers of renewable electricity in the world. Following is a list of such countries which have the highest electricity production from renewable energy sources.
