Non-fossil energy sources composed 85% of new electricity generation capacity in 2022, with solar energy representing the single largest new source—56%. This continues and expands upon the trend of growing renewable energy expansions over recent years. Credit: National Renewable Energy Laboratory Desp...
renewables made up 29 percent of electricity generation in 2020,much of it from hydro-power(16.8 percent).A record amount of over 256 GW of renewable power capacity was added globally during 2020 and continues to be the focal point for climate and energy solutions.Demand for electricity is ...
COP28 late last year agreed to triple global renewables capacity by 2030, which would see renewables reach a 60 percent share of the world’s electricity and deliver a rapid fall in emissions. By Mike Gu in Hong Kong So...

According to data from clean energy think tank Ember, in 2022, China generated 46 percent more wind power than all of Europe. The rapid roll out of wind capacity, along with a more than 27 percent surge in solar generation in 2022 from the year before, helped push China's electricity sha...
It aggregates generation data by fuel by country from 2000. 68 countries comprising 90% of world electricity generation have full-year data to 2020 and have formed the basis of an estimate for changes in worldwide generation. All remaining countries have full data as far as 2019. G20 ...
four different scenarios are considered with different characteristics of climate and security of supply policies. The results show that in the case of climate policy, the renewable energies need tremendous expansion. The final energy consumption is shifting towards the direct use of electricity, while...
