IEA Foresees China’s Clean-Energy Boom Accounting for 60% of Upcoming Projects

The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that China's green-energy boom will account for a whopping 60% of the world's upcoming renewable-energy projects for the next six years. China has all but monopolized the global photovoltaic solar supply chain and is poised to lead the worldwide rollout of green energy via its vast solar capacity, the IEA says. Between now and 2030, the second-largest economy on the globe will make up more than one-half of all installed green-energy capacity, the IEA’s green energy report says. The paper found that the rollout of green energy projects will triple over the next six…

North Africa Set to Meet Europe’s Clean-Energy Needs

North Africa has the potential to supply up to 24 GW of renewable energy to Europe, more than enough to meet the continent's green-energy needs and put the region on track to achieving its climate-change goals. The mostly desert region could potentially generate vast amounts of wind and solar energy and transport it to Europe via undersea connections as nations such as Morocco bring major green-energy projects online. These projects are poised to boost the North African region's green-energy capacity significantly while enhancing Europe's and North America's interconnection. The desert region is sparsely populated and currently lies fallow, unable to…

Study Shows Rise in Clean-Energy Jobs Worldwide

A recent study has revealed that the total number of green-energy jobs in the world has increased by 18% from 2022 to 2023. Jointly released by the United Nations Labor Organization (ILO) and Renewable Energy Agency (Irena) in Abu Dhabi, the report found that China had the most significant increase in green-energy jobs compared to every other nation. According to the report, there were 16.2 million renewable-energy jobs in 2023, an 18% increase from 2022. Unsurprisingly, China accounted for nearly one-half of all renewable sector jobs at 7.4 million jobs, outpacing the entire European Union (EU) in both the manufacture…

Despite Facing Numerous Challenges, Geothermal Holds Promise in Energy Transition

Geothermal energy has the potential to provide plenty of reliable renewable energy, but providers will have to overcome several significant challenges. Solar and wind have emerged as the world's main clean-energy alternatives, and countries are investing tens of billions of dollars in developing these two energy sources. Despite being somewhat overlooked amids the focus on wind and solar, geothermal can also deliver clean and reliable energy. However, geothermal energy is often limited by geographical constraints and high costs, making it difficult for utilities to tap into the massive energy source. Solar and wind are intermittent in nature, but geothermal energy…

IEA Says Feasible to Transform Global Energy in Accordance with COP28 Targets

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has revealed that transforming the world's energy industry to meet COP28 targets is “feasible.” Climate change represents one of the most critical issues humanity has ever faced, and the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference set ambitious green-energy targets to put the globe on track to achieving carbon neutrality. According to the IEA, achieving the green-energy goals established at COP28 is feasible due to robust policies, significant manufacturing potential and “favorable economics.” A recent IEA report says the world can double efficiency and triple green-energy capacity by 2030 but notes that this will require significant…
