Core Insights - The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts strong growth in global renewable energy capacity despite challenges such as supply chain issues, funding pressures, grid integration challenges, and policy uncertainties [1][2] - The report forecasts that the global renewable energy capacity will increase by 4,600 gigawatts (GW) from 2025 to 2030, roughly equivalent to the current total capacity of China, the European Union, and Japan combined [1] Renewable Energy Growth Drivers - The solar photovoltaic (PV) industry is expected to drive the majority of global renewable energy growth, accounting for approximately 80% of the increase in capacity due to low costs and expedited approval processes [1] - Wind energy is projected to be the second-largest contributor to new renewable energy capacity, with significant growth anticipated in China, the EU, and India, despite short-term challenges [1] - Other renewable technologies, including hydropower, biomass, and geothermal energy, will continue to play important roles in supporting power systems and enhancing flexibility [1] Regional Insights - Emerging economies in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa are experiencing faster growth in renewable energy due to cost competitiveness and stronger policy support, with many governments launching new bidding programs and raising development targets [1] - Solar PV is expected to see rapid growth in countries like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and several Southeast Asian nations over the next five years [2]
