The COP28 climate agreement entails a pledge from over 190 nations to triple wind, solar, and other renewable sources by 2030. This ambitious objective targets an annual addition of approximately 1 terawatt, reaching a total capacity of 11 terawatts by the end of the next decade, building on the 292 gigawatts added in 2022 and anticipating almost double that in the current year.
COP28's climate deal calls for a shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy, posing challenges such as grid delays, financing costs, land conflicts, labor shortages, and political opposition to achieving ambitious goals.
China, a leading global emitter, is becoming a renewable powerhouse, addressing energy security and pollution while boosting exports. Challenges include inadequate grid infrastructure, demanding increased investments and upgrades, particularly in developing nations facing funding hurdles and a growing global green skills gap.
