Your participation in such surveys shall be subject to any applicable terms and conditions as shall be communicated to you. The two exceptions were Africa and the Middle East, where renewables accounted for only 52% and 26%, respectively, of net additions. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) produces comprehensive renewable energy statistics on a range of topics. The investment data is presented in millions of United States dollars (USD million) at 2016 prices.Data on renewable power capacity represents the maximum net generating capacity of power plants and other installations that use renewable energy sources to produce electricity. By combining information from surveys, administrative data and desk research, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has attempted to illuminate …

Off-grid electricity production from renewables, although largely unrecorded in most countries, is believed to be expanding rapidly. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) produces comprehensive, reliable data on renewable energy capacity and use worldwide. This publication presents renewable power generation capacity statistics for the past decade (2010-2019) in trilingual tables.
The crisis has exposed deeply embedded vulnerabilities of the current system. ISBN : 978-92-9260-193-5: Download. At the regional level, non-renewable capacity expansion in 2019 continued to follow long-term trends, with net growth in Asia, the Middle East and Africa, but net decommissioning in Europe and North America and little change in other regions.

IRENA publishes detailed statistics on renewable energy capacity, power generation and renewable energy balances.

Pumped storage, although included as part of hydropower data, is excluded from total renewable energy.Electricity generation and capacity datasets from the year 2000 onwards are also available through a 18 August 2020 Renewable Energy Statistics 2019 provides data sets on power-generation capacity for 2009-2018, actual power generation for 2009-2017 and renewable energy balances for over 130 countries and areas for 2016-2017. All Rights Reserved. However, total power capacity expansion in 2019 was also well below average and non-renewable capacity expansion was remarkably low. However, renewables still accounted for at least 70% of total capacity expansion in almost all regions in 2019. IRENA has developed Guiding Principles for Engaging in Cooperation Activities with the Private Sector.The Guidelines aim to facilitate co-operation with the private sector to support the achievement of IRENA’s mandate, goals and objectives.More than 100 video submissions received from young people around the worldAs of today, IRENA has published the full series of 30 Innovation Briefs under its Innovation Landscape report. 19 August 2020 © 2011-2020 IRENA - International Renewable Energy Agency.
