Renewable energy is super easy when you’re a hot, sunny country with a lot of water. High energy demand for AC has a big overlap with the time of the day when the sun is shining.
It’s the opposite when you’re at a high latitude. Now you need the most energy for heating when there is barely any sun. Add some geography where you can’t use any hydro power and wind is all you have left. This is what a large chunk of Europe has to deal with.
