Deployment of nuclear and renewables within 3 years will start causing declining CO2 emissions from electricity production. Might also put a dent in LNG and coal consumption projections.
Quote:
Renewables will cover almost all of global electricity demand growth out to 2025, becoming the world’s top source of electricity within three years, new figures reveal.
Carbon Brief analysis of figures in the#International Energy Agency#(IEA)#electricity market report 2023#shows that renewables, combined with resurgent nuclear power, will more than cover growth in electricity demand between 2022 and 2025.
This means clean-energy sources will start displacing fossil fuels. As a result, global power-sector carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions will plateau or decline, despite rapidly rising demand.
