The 42nd edition of the International Energy Workshop (IEW) will be hosted by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in Bonn, Germany, on 26-28 June, 2024.
The 42nd edition of the International Energy Workshop (IEW) will be hosted by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in Bonn, Germany, on 26-28 June, 2024.
The event offers a unique opportunity for industries in the region to learn about latest developments in hydrogen technologies, network within the expert community and form valuable contacts.
The 14th session of the IRENA Assembly will be held in two parts, on an exceptional basis. Part 1 will be virtual are will take place on 15 January 2024. Part 2 will take place in-person on 16 - 18 April 2024 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
The International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) fifth IRENA Youth Forum: The New Generation of Decision Makers will convene in April 2024 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates at the margins of the fourteenth session of the IRENA Assembly.
The third meeting of the Collaborative Framework on Critical Materials for the Energy Transition (CFCM) will take place virtually on Thursday, 4 April 2024.
The webinar will feature presentations of key findings from each report, as well as insight from multi-actors experts on the progress, challenges, mechanisms, and potential benefits of the above two SIDS energy transition contexts accelerating renewable energy scale up.
Renewable Capacity Statistics 2024 released by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) shows that 2023 set a new record in renewables deployment in the power sector by reaching a total capacity of 3 870 Gigawatts (GW) globally.
This publication presents renewable power generation capacity statistics for the past decade (2013-2023) in trilingual tables.
A tripling of renewable energy capacity will require conditions conducive to accelerated progress. The establishment of supporting infrastructure, robust policy frameworks and the development of institutional and human capacities are key enablers of the accelerated transition. In addition, international co-operation and scaling up finance for developing countries is a key priority.
The 8th meeting of the Collaborative Framework on Ocean Energy/Offshore Renewables (CFOR) will highlight the role of ports/harbors in facilitating accelerated offshore wind deployment, with a focus on polices and best practices in serving as potential energy hubs.
The least-electrified SIDS are now at a crossroads to meet universal energy access. Instead of increasing access through imported fossil fuels, they can pursue decentralised renewable energy solutions.
A number of SIDS are adopting targets and policies to incorporate substantial amounts of renewable energy into their electricity supply mix.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), in partnership with the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia, organised a Renewable Readiness Assessment (RRA) Expert Consultation Workshop on March 20-21, 2024, in Tbilisi, Georgia.
From 19 to 20 March, energy sector stakeholders will come together at the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (BETD) to advance the energy transition and tackle its most pressing challenges.
Despite a record renewable growth in 2023, the energy transition remains off track due to persistent structural barriers and a notable shortfall in investment.
This World Energy Transitions Outlook brief provides the latest tracking data and analysis of global progress towards the goal to triple global renewable power capacity by 2030.
Every other week, presenters from one of IRENA’s teams – either alone or together with invited guests – will provide focused insights into opportunities, trends, best practices and innovative solutions to address challenges, signpost further sources of more in-depth information and provide an opportunity to engage with IRENA’s experts through Q&A sessions.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in collaboration with the Government of Guinea and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) country office organised a workshop on 13-14 February 2024 in Conakry.
A presentation on the portfolio, network and framework of Long-Term Energy Scenarios in Africa.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) launched for the Second year, the IRENA NewGen Renewable Energy Accelerator (NewGen), aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs and innovators in driving the renewable energy transition.
The fourth IRENA Policy Talk 2024 will discuss the narrative of green hydrogen as an export commodity and about its potential as a catalyst for sustainable development and social progress in developing countries.
Drawing from diverse experiences in the renewable energy sector, including key insights from IRENA's Energy Transition Accelerator Financing (ETAF) platform, this article elucidates what makes a project appealing to investors.
This report proposes a comprehensive classification of energy sources and products to address the lack of standardised global energy statistics – an issue that continues to undermine effective policy-making and international collaboration in the context of the energy transition.
The AIS Regional Consultative Workshop aims to present draft progress indicators and impact measures developed by IRENA.
