Answer by William W
Yes and no. As the above poster stated, if the country has a population small enough and sufficient land to build alternative energy sources (wind farms/solar panels/geothermal sites), it may be possible. However, there are VERY few countries like this, and the countries that fulfill the this criteria tend to have weak economic resources at their disposal because of their small size. Thus, they can’t invest in this advanced and expensive technology. For countries with larger populations like the US and China, no it is not possible considering the state of alternative energy technology. Currently, the the technology is still to young to generate enough energy to power a whole nation. You would require TONS of land space to develop alternative energy sources, which is just not available.
