Global energy investment will reach a record €3.04 trillion in 2025, driven by clean technologies, despite geopolitical and economic uncertainties, according to the latest IEA report.
Increase in electricity consumption through 2027 expected to average around 4% annually, driven by growing use for industry, air conditioning, electrification and data centres.
IEA's latest monitor shows wide variations in clean energy deployment among regions and technologies amid increased manufacturing capacity and declining costs.
With solar leading their rapid deployment, renewables are on course to meet almost half of global electricity demand by the end of this decade, a new IEA report says.
Wind and solar power have reached a share of 30% of European Union (EU) electricity generation, overtaking fossil fuels for the first time.
The world has added 50% more renewable capacity in 2023 than in 2022 and the next 5 years will see the fastest growth yet.
Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions hit a record high last year, even as more clean technologies such as solar power and electric vehicles helped limit the impact of increased coal and oil consumption, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Scientists warn that energy users around the world must dramatically reduce emissions to slow the ill effects of global warming.
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is providing €35 million to GreenWay as part of a €113 million financing package to expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure across Central Europe.
The newly published Edition 2 2026 of the PV Module Manufacturer Ranking Report shows the first signs of stabilisation in the solar manufacturing sector's balance sheets after more than a year of steady deterioration. The table tracks the Altman Z-Score, a widely used measure of bankruptcy risk, for 64 publicly listed photovoltaic module manufacturers, and has now been refreshed with first-quarter 2026 data.
The Faculty of Hydrotechnics from the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest and Waldevar Floating PV have signed a strategic partnership to accelerate innovation in renewable energy and prepare the next generation of specialists in floating photovoltaic technologies.
