True, but If it is balanced with the exports, then it is still zero overall. (eg. if your renewable exports are substituting dirty energy somewhere else).

I don't know what the current ratio is, but I do know that Rainfall directly affects the GDP of the country by almost +/- 1%.

Yes, and no.

Yes: the net impact on the environment is likely to be equivalent if imports and exports balance.

No: a major criticism of renewable energy is that it is less reliable. Achieving 100% is much more impressive without a handicap.

I'm still impressed though.

With their mountains and rivers they could probably use hydro as backup for solar and wind generation and achieve 100% but with ability to buy electricity because of the connected grid unlikely to happen
