𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐬 - 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐔𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NetZero World's Renewable Energy Growth Uneven - What's the Path Forward? This report reveals striking differences in #RenewableEnergy growth across regions. In the past decade, Europe built substantial capacity and China saw huge expansion. However, progress lagged in South America, Africa, and the Middle East. Renewables now supply 28% of global electricity - up just 0.2% from 2020 as fossil fuels rebounded. Overall, renewables meet just 8% of total energy demand. This shows the long road ahead to reach net zero emissions targets. Financial support for developing nations stalled in 2021, hindering clean energy progress. With uneven growth, entire regions risk being left behind in the #EnergyTransition. What's the path forward? The world must work together to accelerate renewables deployment globally. We need: ✅ Increased investment and finance for emerging economies ✅ Technology transfer and capacity building ✅ Ambitious commitments from all countries ✅ Local solutions tailored to community needs With inclusive action, we can transition our energy systems and create a sustainable world. But we must act now. The climate crisis demands renewed cooperation and rapid progress for #RenewableEnergy everywhere.

From 2013 to 2022, the world witnessed a groundbreaking shift towards renewable energy! According to the latest report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), global renewable energy capacity more than doubled during this period, setting the stage for a greener future. Key Highlights: Europe: 65% growth North America: 79% growth China: 223% growth Other Asia and Oceania: 145% growth South & Central America, Caribbean: 66% growth Middle East & Africa: 95% growth However, this progress isn't evenly distributed, and there are important insights to consider: 1️⃣ China Leads the Way: China's astounding 223% surge spearheads the global transition to clean energy, with Asia and Oceania not far behind. 2️⃣ Lagging Regions: South & Central America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East & Africa did not witness significant growth, posing a risk of falling behind in the worldwide clean energy shift. 3️⃣ Financial Aid Decline: International financial aid for clean energy research, development, and production in developing countries decreased in 2021, falling below 2012 levels. 4️⃣ Clean Energy's Global Challenge: Despite growth, only 27.8% of the world's electricity came from renewable sources in 2021, making it vital to accelerate progress for a 2030 net-zero emissions scenario. The journey to a greener planet continues, and we invite you to explore the full report for more details.
