The first edition of REthinking Energy, a flagship series from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), examines challenges and opportunities for accelerated deployment of renewables in the power-generation sector, while reviewing global progress in the transition to a sustainable energy future.

IRENA's annual jobs review confirms long-term growth trend; strong policy action essential to ensure continued employment expansion in the COVID-19 era.

本レポートでは2050 年までの気候変動に配慮した投資、エネルギー移行に必要な政策の枠組み、及び各地域が直面する課題に焦点を当てている。また、最終的に排出量をゼロにするための選択肢も探っています。

This outlook highlights climate-safe investment options until 2050, policies for transition and specific regional challenges. It also explores options to eventually cut emissions to zero.

Offshore renewable energy – including offshore wind and solar power, as well as emerging ocean energy technologies – could support sustainable long-term development and drive a vibrant blue economy. 

Geopolitics of the energy transition: Critical materials provides comprehensive insights into the significance of critical materials, examining their associated geopolitical implications and offering recommendations for a sustainable and efficient global energy transition.

يوضح هذا الكتيب الأسباب وراء تسريع وتيرة التحول نحو الطاقة المتجددة لبناء مستقبل آمن للمناخ.

Diese Broschüre beschreibt, warum die Beschleunigung der Nutzung erneuerbarer Energien der Schlüssel zu einer klimasichernden Zukunft ist.

本手册主要概述为什么加速可再生能源的增长是对于未来气候安全的关键所在。

Эта брошюра рассказывает почему ускорение внедрения возобновляемых источников энергии является ключом к безопасному климатическому будущему.

このパンフレットは、再生可能エネルギー利用の加速化が気候の安定した将来を実現する上でなぜ重要であるかについて、分かりやすく説明したものです。

Cette brochure explique pourquoi le déploiement accéléré des énergies renouvelables est la clé d'un avenir sans danger pour le climat.

A energia renovável é uma solução-chave e a ferramenta de ação mais prática para mitigar as mudanças climáticas. Com o emprego acelerado das renováveis, as emissões de dióxido de carbono (CO2) seriam 70% abaixo dos níveis atuais.

This booklet outlines why accelerating the uptake of renewable energy is key to a climate-safe future.

Este folleto describe por qué una adopción acelerada de las energías renovables es una solución clave para un escenario climáticamente seguro.

This paper examines the potential of hydrogen fuel for hard-to-decarbonise energy uses, including aviation, shipping and other. But the decarbonisation impact depends on how hydrogen is produced.

This report explores two broad future paths: Current Plans (meaning the course set by current and planned policies) and the path for a clean, climate-resilient Energy Transformation.

This Commission Report analyses the geopolitical implications of the accelerating global shift to renewables. It is the culmination of deliberations by the Global Commission on the Geopolitics of Energy Transformation. 

As the world strives to cut carbon emissions, electric power from renewables has emerged as a vital energy source.  Fuel needs for transport and industry, meanwhile, could be met with renewable-based hydrogen.

This report outlines a pathway for the world to achieve the Paris Agreement goals and halt the pace of climate change by transforming the global energy landscape.

本レポートは、パリ協定の目標に合わせた包括的でより野心的なエネルギー変革が、経済成長と社会福祉を推進することを調査分析した。

This report highlights the findings from AVRIL (“Addressing Variable Renewable Energy in Long-term Energy Planning”), a project by IRENA that has identified the best practices in long-term planning and modelling to represent high shares of VRE. 

Liberalised electricity markets require timely adaptation to support higher shares of variable renewable energy and distributed power generation. This study presents the latest knowledge on the adaptation process for such markets, aiming to inform policy makers, regulators and system operators on the options available.

This study shows that battery electricity storage systems offer enormous deployment and cost-reduction potential. By 2030, total installed costs could fall between 50% and 60% (and battery cell costs by even more), driven by optimisation of manufacturing facilities, combined with better combinations and reduced use of materials.

世界エネルギー転換展望で示されたIRENAの1.5℃シナリオは、2050年までに1.5℃目標を達成するための道筋を示しており、再生可能エネルギー、クリーン水素、持続可能なバイオマスによって可能となる電化と効率化を、エネルギー転換を推進する主な要因として位置づけています。
