IRENA\u2019s World Energy Transitions Outlook calls for annual renewable power additions of 1,000 GW by 2030 to keep 1.5\u00b0<\/sup>C climate target within reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first volume of the World Energy Transitions Outlook (WETO) 2023<\/a><\/em> released today, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) identifies the way forward to immediately course correct the 1.5\u00b0<\/sup>C climate pathway. The report calls for raised global ambition in renewables deployment, enabled by physical infrastructure, policy, and regulations, and underlining institutional and workforce capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WETO 2023: 1.5\u00b0<\/sup>C Pathway<\/a><\/em> positions electrification and efficiency as key transition drivers, enabled by renewable energy, clean hydrogen, and sustainable biomass and tracks implementation across all energy sectors. According to the latest edition, some progress has been made, mainly in the power sector with record additions in global renewable capacity of 300 gigawatt (GW) in 2022. However, the gap between what has been achieved and what is required continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More ambitious renewable energy targets are needed; the world must add an average of 1,000 GW of renewable power capacity annually by 2030, as well as significantly increase the direct use of renewables in end-use sectors. With the first Global Stocktake concluding at COP28 in the UAE, WETO provides much-needed clarity on priority actions in the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IRENA\u2019s Director-General Francesco La Camera said: \u201cWe face the harsh reality that we are not on track to deliver on the Paris Agreement. Our only option is to follow the most promising, science-based pathway one that puts renewable energy at the centre of the solution, while leading countries to energy security, reduced energy costs, and forward-looking industrial development. The energy transition must become a strategic tool to foster a more equitable and inclusive world. COP28 and the Global Stocktake must not only confirm our deviation from a 1.5\u00b0<\/sup>C pathway, but also provide a strategic blueprint to steer us back on track.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
