Scotland set a 2020 goal of 100% renewable energy electricity generation. This covers electricity, heating, transportation, etc., and is separate from their 2020 goal which centered just on electricity. The last coal plant in Scotland closed in 2016. At least 70% of electricity must come from renewables in 2030.
