Dash 8: in summer about 80%. The few times a non-reduced T/O is needed are usually due to limiting runways, which are not uncommon in my conpany.

In winter on the other hand, approx. 60-70% of takeoffs will likely be full power: icing conditions or deicing fluid present on the aircraft are among the items excluding a reduction in T/O power.
