True, 96% of their power is produced from hydro, but two things have to be considered
- Norway has a population of 5 million
- because of the incentive to use electricity, the annual electricity consumption was about 26-27 MWh per inhabitant during 2004-2009 when the European union (EU15) average in 2008 was 7.4 MWh. Norway’s consumption of electricity was over three times higher per person compared to the EU 15 average in 2008
For comparison, Italy makes 41% of its power from hydro, but have to serve a population of 60 million
