Renewable energy continues to rise in demand

With the world currently experiencing a climate crisis, individuals, organizations, and governments continue to demand that the energy sector be transformed by including and advancing renewable energy alternatives to traditional fossil fuels. Globally, since 2000, renewable energy sources have grown from accounting for 19% of electricity to 30% by 2023, with solar power in particular being a driving force behind renewable energy growth:

“The renewables future has arrived,” said Dave Jones, Ember’s director of global insights. “Solar in particular is accelerating faster than anyone thought possible.”

In 2023, solar power was named for the ninth consecutive year as the fastest-growing electricity source, surpassing wind energy for the second year. However, to meet our energy needs with renewables, the world must rely on other sources of renewable energy, with wind and hydropower offering some of the most promising solutions.
