Renewables take starring role post the pandemic
Renewables will take a starring role over the next decade, with solar power taking centre stage. Solar PV is now consistently cheaper than new coal- or gas-fired power plants in most countries, and solar projects now offer some of the lowest-cost electricity ever seen. Storage will play an increasingly vital role in ensuring the flexible operation of power systems. These are some of the findings in the World Energy Outlook 2020, the International Energy Agency’s flagship publication, that can be found here.

IAE highlights Africa’s role in shaping global energy trends
The International Energy Agency (IEA) highlights Africa’s role in shaping global energy trends in its Africa Energy Outlook 2019, https://www.iea.org/africa2019/. The report concludes that Africa in 2040 could meet the energy demands of an economy four times larger than today’s with only 50% more energy. Better access to energy will be key in achieving growth but it requires investments. If policy makers put a strong emphasis on clean energy technologies solar PV could become the continent’s largest electricity source in terms of installed capacity by 2040.
