Causes and Consequences: Renewables Provide Little of Our Energy Despite the appeal of renewable energy sources, they currently comprise less than 14% of our global energy supply and generate less than 19% of our electricity. Moreover, the "new renewables" account for only a very small fraction of these numbers. The fact that renewables provide little of our energy is a dilemma with multiple causes and consequences. However, most renewable sources are now expanding quickly, and there are many ways in which we can encourage their development and spread. ▼ Part A The following answers for the Causes and Consequences features are examples and are not intended to represent a comprehensive list. In addition, the sequence of items is not meant to connote relative importance.
