Why This Ranking Matters
Examining Wind Electricity Share across all countries reveals patterns that might not be obvious at the national level. Regional clusters, outlier nations, and historical trajectories all become clearer when the full global picture is assembled in a single ranking.
Global Range
Values range from 0% (Zimbabwe) to 57.69% (Denmark) — an infinitely large difference across 210 countries.
Regional Patterns
European countries dominate this ranking, holding 16 of the top 20 positions. This strong regional concentration suggests shared economic, geographic, or policy factors that drive higher values across the continent.
The distribution is highly right-skewed — a few countries have exceptionally high values that pull the average well above the median. The median (0.11%) is far more representative than the mean (4.57%).
Notable Outliers
Denmark holds a significant lead over Lithuania, with a 29% gap between first and second place. While several countries cluster near the top, the leader's margin is notable.
