Renewable capacity is expected to further increase over 8% in 2022, reaching almost 320 GW. However, unless new policies are implemented rapidly, growth remains stable in 2023 because solar PV expansion cannot fully compensate for lower hydropower and steady year-on-year wind additions. Globally, forecast additions for 2022 …
It''s long been axiomatic that economic growth and energy demand are linked. As economies grow, energy demand increases; if energy is constrained, GDP growth pulls back in turn. That''s been the case since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, if not long before. But past is not always prologue. Our latest global energy …

Wind and solar generation are responsible for most of that growth. The renewable share is projected to …
The dataset comprises a panel of 30 countries during the 1980–2014 period and includes data on CO 2 emissions, economic growth, renewable and non-renewable energy consumption, technological innovation, per capita GDP, foreign direct investment, financial development, trade openness and population size. The variables data are …
The global emphasis on achieving sustainable development goals necessitates the involvement of researchers and regulators worldwide. In light of this, recent research has examined the effect of human capital, renewable energy, population growth, economic growth, and environmental protection on the sustainable development goals …
About this report. Renewables 2022 is the IEA''s primary analysis on the sector, based on current policies and market developments. It forecasts the deployment of renewable energy technologies in electricity, transport and heat to 2027 while also exploring key challenges to the industry and identifying barriers to faster growth.
Texas added 1,309 MW of capacity (3% annual increase) and generated 5,049 GWh more than the previous year (4% annual increase). Arizona and New York standout for their relative growth in wind ...
The rapid growth of solar and wind power in recent years has breathed hope into global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the most dangerous effects of climate change. In 2010, solar and wind combined made up only 1.7% of global electricity generation. By last year, it had climbed to 8.7% — far higher than what had ...
2023 saw a step change in renewable capacity additions, driven by China''s solar PV market. Global annual renewable capacity additions increased by almost 50% to nearly 510 gigawatts (GW) in 2023, the fastest growth rate in the past two decades. This is the 22nd year in a row that renewable capacity additions set a new record.
It appears that renewable energy consumption has a positive and significant impact on economic growth for 8 countries out of 15, meaning that economic growth is elastic with respect of renewable energy consumption, and a 1 percent increase in renewable energy consumption increases economic growth within a range of 0.012 …
Table 7 illustrates the effect of "hydropower, geothermal energy, wind energy, and solar energy" on sustainable economic growth, which demonstrates the positive but insignificant impact of hydropower renewable energy source on the economic growth of Asian economies.
