Grid infrastructure modernisation offers the global power sector significant opportunities for large-scale renewable energy integration through strategic investment, extensive planning, and coordination of multiple stakeholders, to reach the ambitious target of 11.2 terawatts of renewables capacity by 2030.
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is redefining its role within an evolving energy landscape, transitioning to a renewables-based energy system offers a pathway to simultaneously meet growing energy demand, promote economic growth, maximise socio-economic benefits, and achieve decarbonisation objectives.
Despite the headwinds of economic uncertainty, inflation and rising interest rates of the past year, global renewable capacity has continued to grow. There were almost 295 gigawatts of capacity added last year, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency, to reach a total global capacity of 3.4 terawatts.
Served as the inaugural session of the 2023 Senegal Masterplan Development Support Programme, the kick-off meeting gathered stakeholders to lay a solid foundation for the programme activities.
本出版物为政策制定者提供了全球可再生能源电气化转型的概念性概述。
This publication provides policy makers with a conceptual overview of the global transition to electrification with renewables.
With a view to supporting the efforts of the countries of Latin America in undertaking the transformation of their energy sector, IRENA and the Ministry of Environment and Energy of Costa Rica co-organised a regional workshop to exchange lessons learned and best practices in the development and implementation of decarbonisation strategies driven by renewable energy, energy efficiency and electrification.
These briefs explore enabling technologies for large-scale use of solar and wind power. Building on a wider Innovation Landscape study, the set covers innovations in batteries, electric vehicle charging, artificial intelligence, Blockchain and other technologies.
This workshop was part of the experience-sharing programme on innovative solutions for very high shares of renewable power by mid-century, supported by the government of Sweden and in collaboration with the government of Uruguay.
