Are alternative power sources (solar energy, wind power, etc) popular in your country?
What is the percentage of their use?
On the order of 1% in the U.S. In some states, like California and Texas it is higher, but still less than 5%. I am not counting hydroelectric power in that because it is a traditional source, although totally renewable.
According to the source below, Denmark gets almost 20% of its electricity from wind.
