    Global New Energy Getting Better

    The share of modern renewable energy in the total global energy supply is on the rise

    June 3, 2018 (Renewable Energy Policy Network for the 21ST Century)

    “…Renewable electricity saw record global growth in solar PV and continued acceleration of wind power. Solar PV was the star performer for the second year in a row, with newly installed capacity increasing by about 33% (at least 98 gigawatts, GW) over the record-setting additions in 2016. Approximately 402 GW of solar PV was up and running worldwide by the end of 2017…About 52 GW of wind power was added globally in 2017, bringing the cumulative total installed capacity to around 539 GW – an increase of nearly 11% over 2016. The global offshore wind market grew 30% [according to the 2018 Global Status Update from REN21]...Taken together, renewables accounted for an estimated 70% of net additions to global power generation capacity, up from 63% in 2016…[T]he countries leading in wind and solar PV penetration are Denmark (52.9%), Uruguay (28.1%), Germany (26%) and Ireland (25.2%)…[But] South Australia generated more than 100% of its electricity demand (load) from wind power alone on one occasion, and 44% from solar PV alone on another…[Germany got 66% of load from wind and solar combined and the US state of Texas got 54% of load from wind]…” click here for more
