The Middle East and North Africa region has huge renewable energy potential. This is how the region can scale up the production of wind and solar power.
The feed-in tariff (FIT) scheme – which has been adopted by many other countries – pays renewable energy producers a set rate per kilowatt-hour for electricity they feed into the grid. Germany also provides homeowners with tax incentives for energy-efficient renovations – households can claim back 20% of renovation costs up to €40,000 ...
The world must install over 1,200 gigawatts of renewable energy capacity annually by 2030 to meet these goals, the consequences of failure are too awful to consider, the time for global cooperation is now. At the COP28 climate summit in late 2023, finding new sources of more sustainable power was rightly high on the agenda, with 118 governments ...
Investment in renewable energy is skyrocketing, in line with ambitious national targets aimed at curbing carbon emissions. As renewable energy capacity grows, we must identify and expand better ways of storing this energy, to avoid waste and deal with demand spikes. Utility companies and other providers are increasingly focused on developing effective long-term energy storage solutions.
Renewable energy was the cheapest source of energy in the year 2020. The cost of renewable technologies like wind and solar is falling significantly, according to a new report.
Its Renewable Energy and Jobs: Annual Review 2022 report, put together in collaboration with the International Labour Organization (ILO), shows that an increasing number of countries are creating jobs in the renewable energy sector. It says this jobs boom could increase worldwide employment in renewable energy to more than 38 million by 2030.
Clean energy boomed in 2023, with 50% more renewables capacity added to energy systems around the world compared to the previous year. Additional renewable electricity capacity reached 507 gigawatts (GW) in 2023, with solar PV making up three-quarters of global additions, according to the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) Renewables 2023 ...
The amount of renewable energy we produce has increased by 10% in 2022, leading to a reduction in CO2 emissions from the global power sector.
A billion people live in a city with renewable energy targets or policies. Cities contribute three-quarters of CO2 emissions from final energy use. New report highlights some ways cities around the world are getting greener.
We reveal the truth about renewable energy's reliability and cost-effectiveness – backed-up by consumer demand and supported by the latest grid technology.
