Summary:
-
The world risks missing the goal to triple renewable energy capacity by 2030, as current growth rates are inadequate, according to IRENA.
-
Last year’s 14% increase in capacity added 473 GW, the largest annual growth since 2000, but below the 16.4% annual rate needed to meet the target.
-
If the 14% rate continues, the 11 TW target will fall 1.5 TW short, highlighting the need for increased efforts.
