Renewables Competitiveness Accelerates, Despite Cost Inflation
The fossil fuel price crisis has accelerated the competitiveness of renewable power. Around 86 per cent (187 gigawatts) of all the newly commissioned renewable capacity in 2022 had lower costs than fossil fuel-fired electricity. Renewable Power Generation Costs in 2022,…
Energy Efficiency and Renewables are Instrumental for Countries in the Greater Horn of Africa to Provide Energy for all
Energy infrastructure in the greater Horn of Africa has struggled to keep pace with a fast-growing population, creating a formidable hurdle for the region’s buoyant economies that can best be overcome through stronger deployment of energy efficiency and renewable technologies,…
Five Cross-cutting Barriers to Bioenergy Deployment and How to Address Them
Bioenergy – solid biofuels, biogas, biomethane and liquid biofuels – already makes a significant contribution to the world’s energy supply, but half of the deployment currently takes the form of traditional uses of bioenergy for cooking and heating, mainly in…
Key Renewables Payers Call for Collaboration Between Renewable Energy and Agriculture Sectors
Energy use is responsible for about one-third of greenhouse gases emitted by the food systems. With its continuously declining costs, renewables have become an attractive and effective way to fuel the achievement of key sustainable development goals including food security.…
What does net-zero emissions by 2050 mean for bioenergy and land use?
Modern and sustainable forms of bioenergy play an important role in our new special report on how the global energy sector can reach net-zero emissions by 2050, which also examines bioenergy’s advantages and limitations in efforts to address climate change by limiting…
Energy Pathway to Net Zero by 2050
The world has a viable pathway to building a global energy sector with net-zero emissions in 2050, but it is narrow and requires an unprecedented transformation of how energy is produced, transported and used globally, the International Energy Agency said…
Renewables are Stronger than Ever as They Power Through the Pandemic
Renewable sources of electricity such as wind and solar grew at their fastest rate in two decades in 2020 and are set to expand in coming years at a much faster pace than prior to the pandemic, according to a…
