What the numbers say
In 2020, Other small states' renewable energy consumption (% of total final energy consumption) rose 3.01 percentage points on 2019 (from 42.39% to 45.4%).
Across the 29 yearly changes before that (1991 to 2019), the average change was +0.64 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 1.29 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.8 standard deviations above that average, so it was larger than a typical year, though not out of the range seen before.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 4.73 percentage points in 1992 and the biggest yearly fall was 1.85 percentage points in 2006. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2011 to 2020 the straight-line trend is upward, about 0.37 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 65% of the movement over 10 observed years.
