The largest growth took place in China, which commissioned as much solar in 2023 as the entire world did in 2022, while China’s wind power additions rose by 66% year-over-year. The increases  in renewable energy capacity in the US, Europe, and Brazil also hit all-time highs. What about Alberta? #China #GreenEnergy #ClimateEmergency #climateaction #alberta

Global Renewable Energy Progress: Pathways And Challenges To 2030 Goals – IEA Report #RenewableEnergy #GlobalGrowth #SolarEnergy #WindEnergy #PolicyReforms #COP28 https://lnkd.in/gASBTTHJ

Inspiring news! #Renewableenergy is now growing faster than at any time in the past three decades, giving the world "a real chance" to triple renewable capacity by 2030, a new International Energy Agency (IEA) report says. According to the document, the world added "50% more renewable capacity in 2023 than in 2022", while it estimates the next five years will see the "fastest growth yet". Ecohz, along with many organisations worldwide, has called on governments to work towards tripling clean energy capacity by the end of the decade: https://lnkd.in/dZ3WFXwB By allowing more organisations to participate in the energy transition, we can achieve that goal.

The world’s renewable energy capacity grew at a record pace in 2023, with the IEA reporting 50% growth! The rapid expansion of wind and solar power, accompanied by falling costs, played a significant role in driving this remarkable growth. This keeps up the hope of achieving the #COP28 climate target of tripling clean energy capacity by 2030! This exciting development fills us with hope for a future powered by sustainable and green energy sources but, as the article reminds us, we need to continue boosting renewable energy usage for this to happen. #RenewableEnergy #SustainableFuture #GlobalEnergy

According to the latest International Energy Agency (IEA) report, the global capacity for generating renewable energy has expanded at an unprecedented rate over the past two decades. This is great news. But to be effective, those renewables require major growth in transmission lines to get the power from where it’s generated to where it’s going to be used. The aging U.S. power #grid is not equipped to address this challenge on its own. Initially designed to connect fossil fuel plants with businesses and homes requiring power, it now requires a new approach to accommodate renewables. VEIR’s superconducting transmission systems transmit 5-10x more power along the same right of way as existing power lines, allowing sustainable energy to get where it’s needed most.

Today I am wrapping my mind around the projected growth for the #renewable #energy space. Renewable Energy capacity to double by 2030! Think about this, it is the transition of our Global energy consumption to renewable energy. I have read #predictions projecting to see somewhere from $1.7 to $2.3 #trillion estimated invested into renewable energy in 2023 alone! Think about all of the #resources that will be needed and all of the #opportunity that is being created as we live breath and sleep each day. I am in! #letsdothis https://lnkd.in/eGm8c8C9

Good news for the renewable energy industry and for reaching the 2030 targets. The expected surge in the energy industry will help major economies reach the climate goals by adding another 5 500 Gigawatts of renewable energy between 2024 and 2030.

The world is making significant progress towards achieving the goal of tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030, thanks to a massive expansion of renewable power. The latest report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) reveals that renewable energy capacity added to energy systems around the world grew by 50% in 2023, reaching almost 510 gigawatts (GW). Solar PV accounted for three-quarters of additions worldwide, with China leading the way by commissioning as much solar PV in 2023 as the entire world did in 2022. Wind power additions in China also rose by 66% YoY. The increases in renewable energy capacity in Europe, the United States, and Brazil also hit all-time highs. This expansion gives us a real chance of achieving the goal set at COP28 climate change conference last month, and we should all be proud of the progress we are making towards a greener future. #RenewableEnergy #ClimateChange #Sustainability #IEA

Renewable energy is on the rise. A recent International Energy Agency (IEA) article shared that the world added 50% more renewable capacity in 2023 than in 2022. And we’ll see even faster growth in next 5 years.     We’re excited to play a leading role in the clean energy revolution, harnessing the power of renewable resources to create a greener planet. #VesperEnergy     https://lnkd.in/edRF3yzg 

The world’s renewable energy grew by a massive 50% last year! 📈 According to figures from the IEA, increasing global capacity to 510 gigawatts (GW) in 2023, the 22nd year that renewable capacity additions set a new record. 🏆 Record growth rates across Europe, the US and Brazil have put renewables on track to overtake coal as the largest source of global electricity generation by early 2025! ⚡️ #globalenergy #greentechnology #renewableenergy #solarpower #windpower #hydropower #greenelectricity #carbonreduction
