Gwec Global Wind Power Needs To Triple Next Decade To Meet Net Zero

Gwec Global Wind Power Needs To Triple Next Decade To Meet Net Zero 25 march 2021, brussels – 2020 was the best year in history for the global wind industry with 93 gw of new capacity installed – a 53 per cent year on year increase – but a new report published by the global wind energy council (gwec) warns that this growth is not sufficient to ensure the world achieves net zero by 2050. according to the. According to the global wind report 2021, gwec's 16 th annual flagship report, the world needs to be installing wind power three times faster over the next decade in order to stay on a net zero.

Global Wind Power Growth Must Triple Over Next Decade To Achieve Net The report highlights increasing momentum on the growth of wind energy worldwide: total installations of 117gw in 2023 represents a 50% year on year increase from 2022. 2023 was a year of continued global growth – 54 countries representing all continents built new wind power. gwec has revised its 2024 2030 growth forecast (1210gw) upwards by. The wind industry recorded its strongest year with a record 93gw of new capacity in 2020. yet gwec believes growth must triple over this next decade to have a chance at achieving 2050 net zero goals. Global wind power growth must triple over the next decade to avoid the worst impact of climate change. the world needs to be installing an average of 180 gw of new wind energy every year to limit global warming to well below 2°c above pre industrial levels, and will need to install up to 280 gw annually from 2030 onwards to maintain a pathway. However, with more countries and governments committing to 2030 de carbonisation targets, global wind growth needs to rapidly accelerate to meet these goals, with annual wind installations needing to triple to at least 320gw over the next decade. this intense pace of installation brings about several challenges, including: financing; supply chains.

To Achieve Net Zero We Need Triple Wind Energy Deployment Rate Gwec Global wind power growth must triple over the next decade to avoid the worst impact of climate change. the world needs to be installing an average of 180 gw of new wind energy every year to limit global warming to well below 2°c above pre industrial levels, and will need to install up to 280 gw annually from 2030 onwards to maintain a pathway.

Gwec report indicates wind industry resilience, but a need to triple installation for net zero. despite marking 2020 as the best year in history for the global wind industry, gwec warns that new wind power capacity needs to be installed three times faster over the next decade to achieve global climate targets. "our current market forecasts show that 469 gw of new wind power capacity will be installed over the next five years. but we need to be installing at least 180 gw of new capacity every year through 2025 to ensure we remain on the right path to limit global warming well below 2°c meaning we are currently on track to be 86 gw short on average each year,” said ben backwell, ceo at gwec.
