Special report on renewable energy sources and climate change mitigation (SRREN) - Summary
Close to 80 percent of the world‘s energy supply could be met by renewables by mid-century if backed by the right enabling public policies says this new report by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Close to 80 percent of the world‘s energy supply could be met by renewables by mid-century if backed by the right enabling public policies a new report shows. The findings, from over 120 researchers working with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), also indicate that the rising penetration of renewable energies could lead to cumulative greenhouse gas savings equivalent to 220 to 560 Gigatonnes of carbon dioxide (GtC02eq) between 2010 and 2050.
