Most likely bio or geothermal renewable energy. Go to Iceland, buy acres of land for livestock and draft animals. Harvest the methane/ farts from cows, and also be located on a naturally occurring spring.
I'd use hydro, solar, wind and geothermal wherever they'd work best in the area, with nuclear and possibly hydrogen power to supplement the grid in case the other methods can't fulfill the entire area's energy needs. And if there's somehow too much power being produced, the excess can always be stored in battery farms for use on leaner days.

Solar, hydro and wind, along with Pumped Storage Hydropower for energy storage.
Some are mentioning "nuclear fusion", which I think would be great, but afaik we are not ready to use it as a renewable just yet and I'm not familiar with what its use entitles.
Nuclear (fission) is not a renewable, it's a consumable. The question was specifically about a renewable.
Technically it's Moon power!
Solar for Me.
