Norway's electricity generation mix is dominated by renewable sources. According to Statistics Norway (SSB), as of December 2025, 87.8% of electricity was generated from hydropower and 10.7% from wind, totaling 98.5% renewables. Non-renewable sources like gas and oil contribute a negligible share.
This data is corroborated by the European Environment Agency, which reports that approximately 98% of Norway's electricity comes from hydro and wind power. Enerdata's February 2026 update confirms the continued dominance of these renewable sources, with minimal fossil fuel input.
The structure of Norway's energy system has remained stable for decades, consistently achieving one of the highest renewable shares in the world. The country's focus on hydropower and wind ensures a low-carbon electricity grid.
