Renewable Energy: at the heart of the clean energy transition

Renewable energy is crucial in the fight against climate change and in achieving the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. For the world to sustainably transition from fossil fuels to cleaner sources of energy, renewables such as wind and solar must be scaled up and complemented by other emerging technologies.

Fortunately, the world has woken up to this reality, giving renewables stronger tailwinds now than ever before. Regulatory support, the desire for sustainable energy security, technological cost reductions, innovations happening in the space, and consumer awareness are among the forces coming together to drive the renewable energy revolution.
