Last December, the participating countries reached an agreement COP28 climate conference In Dubai on one triple Renewable energy by 2030. However, since then, very few measures have been taken to achieve this ambitious goal. This is the result of a new analysis by the International Energy Agency (IEA), which was recently published.

Laws and objectives of 150 countries were analysed
As part of their study, the scientists looked at the laws and targets involved in about 150 countries. On this basis they calculated approximately that 8000 gigawatts It is possible to provide additional energy by 2030. However, in total, the required triple doubling will be possible 11,000 gigawatts necessary.
According to the current situation, more than half of the power should come solar energy are created. Out of authority Wind force You should contribute about a quarter of this. According to the International Energy Agency, electricity generated from solar and wind energy is already cheaper than fossil forms of energy, and according to the agency, this will not change in the near future.
China is the most likely candidate
However, the development towards more renewable energies is not happening at the same speed in all countries. More capacity was added in China last year than in the rest of the world combined.
Countries must now make greater efforts to achieve Dubai's goals. Another meeting of government representatives is now being held in the German city of Bonn, where the goals set at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) will be discussed again. Experts at the International Energy Agency believe that it is possible that countries will still be able to catch up despite everything.
