GWNET – Global Women’s Network for the Energy TransitionDo you have any questions about the network or our experts platform? And it is eaten up as the world’s energy hunger continues to increase. REN21 Report Shows Renewables’ Progress Limited to Power Sector: We Need a Total Fossil Lockdown for a Climate Revolution.

Many national and global organisations already cry victory. The 2020 edition has been co-authored by over 350 experts. Their goal: encourage and enable them to make the shift to renewable energy happen – now!Their annual publication, the Renewables Global Status Report, is probably the world’s most comprehensive crowdsourced report on renewables. “Many of these packages include ideas that will instead lock us further into a dirty fossil fuel system. Others, though claiming a green focus, build the roof and forget the foundation,” she says. Growth in renewable power has been impressive over the past five years. Others, though claiming a green focus, build the roof and forget the foundation,” she says. It also documents that renewables deliver on job creation, energy sovereignty, accelerated energy access in developing countries, reduced emissions and air pollution.This contrasts with the true cost of fossil fuels estimated to be USD 5.2 trillion, if costs of negative impacts such as air pollution, effects of climate change, and traffic congestion are counted.Renewable energy systems support energy sovereignty and democracy, empowering citizens and communities, instead of big fossil fuel producers and consumers. Now.” concludes Arthouros Zervos, President of REN21.REN21 is the only global community of renewable energy actors from science, academia, governments, NGOs and industry across all renewable energy sectors.

This is according to REN21’s Renewables 2020 Global Status Report, which also states that overall, global energy consumption keeps increasing, “eating up the progress made in renewable generation.” “Year after year, we report success after success in the renewable power sector. REN21 Report shows renewables’ progress limited to power sector. But our report sends a clear warning: The progress in the power sector is only a small part of the picture. These technologies are only green if powered by renewables.”The report points out that “green” recovery measures, such as investment in renewables and building efficiency, are more cost effective than traditional stimulus measures and yield more returns. 16/06/2020 16/06/2020, News, 0 .
