Solar PV and wind are set to contribute two-thirds of renewables growth. China alone should account for almost half of the global increase in renewable electricity in 2021, followed by the
Renewable energy comes from unlimited, naturally replenished resources, such as the sun, tides, and wind. Renewable energy can be used for electricity generation, space and water heating and cooling, and transportation. Non-renewable energy, in contrast, comes from finite sources, such as coal, natural gas, and oil.
In addition, a ground-breaking study by the US Department of Energy''s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) explored the feasibility of generating 80 percent of the country''s electricity from renewable sources by 2050. They found that renewable energy could help reduce the electricity sector''s emissions by approximately 81 percent .

The Global Wind Atlas is a free, web-based application developed to help policymakers, planners, and investors identify high-wind areas for wind power generation virtually anywhere in the world, and then perform preliminary calculations.
The world is on course to add more renewable capacity in the next five years than has been installed since the first commercial renewable energy power plant was built more than 100 years ago. In the main case forecast in this report, almost 3 700 GW of new renewable capacity comes online over the 2023‑2028 period, driven by supportive
The Global Atlas for Renewable Energy initiative helps countries realise their potential for renewable energy development. Since its inception in 2012, the initiative has assisted policy makers, project developers, investors and the global community by providing data – the Global Atlas for Renewable Energy, online tools – Bioenergy and SolarCity simulators, and country
Make renewable energy technology a global public good. Fossil-fuel subsidies are one of the biggest financial barriers hampering the world''s shift to renewable energy. according to the IMF.
Renewable Energy Statistics 2021 provides data sets on power-generation capacity for 2011-2020, actual power generation for 2011-2019 and renewable energy balances for over 130 countries and areas for 2018-2019. Data was obtained from a variety of sources, including an IRENA questionnaire, official national statistics, industry association
Renewable energy is an important element in the fight against climate change, reducing reliance on fossil fuels that release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. just a few countries are responsible for most of the world''s production of lithium. According to Magda, the UK lacks access to the supply chain needed for Li-ion batteries. ''As a
In light of the significance of the hydrogen industry, the International Renewable Energy Agency''s analysis of the renewable energy road map indicates that hydrogen will contribute for 6 % of the world''s total final energy consumption in 2050 [5], while the Hydrogen Council in its roadmap shows that hydrogen can achieve a share of 18 % by 2050
Editor''s Note, Dec. 14, 2023: This article was updated to use a new global target after the release of the 2023 State of Climate Action report. The updated data analysis doesn''t change the eight countries that have scaled solar and wind energy the fastest, however, it does show that only three of the eight countries (Uruguay, Denmark and Lithuania) have had growth
Domestic production of natural gas and a determined policy effort at federal and state levels driven by mechanisms like tax incentives for renewables have transformed the country''s energy sector. 11% of the total energy demand and 17% of all electricity generation in the United States is supplied from renewable energy resources according to the
According to the International Energy Agency, over 140 million people do not have access to energy in Nigeria, about 71% of the country''s population. with vast natural resources, including oil and gas, and it''s one of the largest oil producers in the world. As the country''s economy continues to grow rapidly, so does its demand for

Renewable energy potential analysis: analyze the potential for renewable energy production (solar, wind, hydro) in each country or region. This will involve using the collected data to assess the maximum potential for renewable energy generation. The map highlights the geographic spread of these production centers across the region. The
Yet despite record growth, renewable energy installations need to ramp up even faster. Analyses of achieving 100% carbon-free electricity by 2035, what''s needed to achieve U.S. greenhouse gas reduction targets, indicate that annual installation rates of renewables in coming years need to nearly double the rates seen in 2023.. Electric vehicle sales set new records in
The World Energy Outlook 2023 provides in-depth analysis and strategic insights into every aspect of the global energy system. Against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions and fragile energy markets, this year''s report explores how structural shifts in economies and in energy use are shifting the way that the world meets rising demand for energy.
