At the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Dubai last year, governments around the world Triple renewable energy capacity by 2030 They agreed on. At the conference held in Baku this year, there was a slight increase in national targets to achieve this goal. So is this enough?

Looking at national energy plans, countries are on track to double global renewable energy capacity by 2030 compared to 2023. There is plenty of opportunity for growth with the falling cost of wind and solar power, but whether policymakers are ready to divest from fossil fuels is a more difficult question.

Think tank Ember published its report evaluating 96 countries and the European Union, representing 95% of global electricity demand. In the report, within the EU Only 8 countries updated their national renewable energy targets ve 4 GW increase It is stated that . While the targets are sufficient to increase renewable energy capacity by a factor of 2, it is not possible to increase it by a factor of 3. 3.758 GW additional capacity needs to be added.

Solar energy may grow faster than expected

The good news is that industry forecasts predict that higher capacity will be added than determined by national policies. Therefore, despite the resistance of countries, renewable energy It may grow faster than targeted. According to Ember’s estimates, solar installations this year will increase more than last year. 29% increase will show. Industry forecasts show growth in solar energy will exceed target by 2030 3x increase predicts that it can be achieved.

However Wind energy and energy storage will fall behind the targets It looks like. According to analysis by the International Energy Agency earlier this year, electricity grids around the world will need approximately 10 million in energy storage capacity, mostly batteries, by 2030. A 15-fold increase will be needed.

Under the international climate change agreement signed in Paris in 2015, each country must submit an updated national climate plan by February. Ember thinks this is an important opportunity to triple the renewable energy capacity in the world. These national plans are expected to come into effect with the ongoing talks in Baku.

How are the situations in Turkey?

Published by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources 2024-2028 Strategic PlanAccording to Turkey, until 2028 solar and wind capacity, current 30 GW from level 52 GW’a plans to upgrade. According to the statement of the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Alparslan Bayraktar, Türkiye 2035 By significantly increasing the solar and wind capacity target by 120 GWIt has increased to .
