Countries urged to power past coal as new report confirms renewables would bring cost savings of USD 156 billion to emerging economies. Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, 22 June, 2021 – The
Wholesale electricity prices in Europe would have been 8% higher in 2022 without the additional renewable capacity, according to the new IEA report. While the competitiveness of wind and solar PV has improved since last year, government policies need to adapt to changing market conditions, particularly for renewable energy auctions,
Turning the tide in scaling renewables. The renewable energy industry has experienced impressive growth over the past decade. In 2022, renewable energy deployments grew by double digits worldwide. 1 However, only 14 percent of all energy use currently comes from renewable sources. 2. Renewable energy is estimated to make up 77% of the world''s
The CIS, launched in December 2022, is a framework to drive new renewable dispatchable capacity via auctions based on floor and ceiling prices. According to the plan, the government pays the difference when revenues fall below the floor price, and the generator returns a share of profits when revenues exceed the ceiling.
The EU Council on Monday adopted the new Renewables Energy Directive to increase the share of renewable energy in the EU''s energy consumption to 42.5% by 2030, with an ambition of 45%. In addition, the EU Council adopted the RefuelEU aviation initiative to decarbonise the aviation sector. The steps mean the EU now has
Renewables 2023 is the IEA''s primary analysis on the sector, based on current policies and market developments. It forecasts the deployment of renewable energy technologies in electricity, transport and heat to 2028 while also exploring key challenges to the industry and identifying barriers to faster growth. At the COP28 climate change
Global renewable energy capacity is expected to grow by 2.5 times by 2030, but governments need to go further to achieve a goal of tripling it by then, as agreed at the UN climate talks in
About this report. Renewables 2021 is the IEA''s primary analysis on the sector, based on current policies and market developments. It forecasts the deployment of renewable energy technologies in electricity, transport and heat to 2026 while also exploring key challenges to the industry and identifying barriers to faster growth.
In May 2020, the IEA market update on renewable energy provided an analysis that looked at the impact of Covid-19 on renewable energy deployment in 2020 and 2021. This early assessment showed that the Covid-19 crisis is hurting – but not halting – global renewable energy growth. Half a year later, the pandemic continues to affect the
Globally, renewable electricity capacity is forecast to increase by over 60% between 2020 and 2026, reaching more than 4 800 GW. This is equivalent to the current global power capacity of fossil fuels and nuclear combined. Overall, China remains the leader over the next five years, accounting for 43% of global renewable capacity growth
About 270 GW of new renewable capacity is on course to be added in 2021 and East Africa Solar & wind power could break the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam deadlock By Sebastian Sterl 10 May 2021 In this Op

Led by solar PV, renewable power growth is surging – driven by the global energy crisis and policy momentum. Global renewable capacity additions are set to soar by 107 gigawatts (GW), the largest absolute increase ever, to more than 440 GW in 2023. This is equivalent of more than the entire installed power capacity of Germany and Spain combined.
