Sweden, Australia, Netherlands, Germany and Denmark are the leading countries for per capita solar and wind generation capacity, according to data by the International Solar Energy Society (ISES).
Furthermore, it explains that global solar capacity has been doubling every 3 years, and wind every 6 years, whereas fossil and nuclear capacity and generation have been almost static in recent years.
[...]
Combined global per capita solar and wind capacity is more than double hydro capacity, and seven times larger than nuclear capacity.

The leading countries for speed of deployment of solar and wind (new Watts per person per year averaged over 2022-24) are Lithuania, Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Netherlands, Australia and Austria (Figure 2). Most of the leading countries are in Europe, along with Australia, Qatar, China and Chile.

Solar PV capacity has been growing faster than all other electricity generation technologies combined since 2022. Since 2010, when it started publishing the World Energy Outlook, the International Energy Agency has vastly underestimated the growth of solar and other renewable energy technologies.
