Whilst we are still in the throes of Coronavirus, leaders worldwide are focusing on how to revive economies post Covid-19. The future for renewables is looking bright and solar is leading the way in the green recovery predicted all around. The IEA – International Energy Agency’s New World Outlook forecasts are particularly good for solar. In the words of the IEA Executive Director, Faith Birol, “I see solar becoming the new king of the world’s electricity markets”. The report sees solar, as the cheapest source of energy, continuing to grow at record setting speeds, once the pandemic is under control and demand for electricity rebounds. The report urges all nations to align their policies with the Paris Agreement and the facets of the Sustainable Goals (SDG’s) to achieve what they call the “Sustainable Development Scenario”. With this and the UK government setting out its 10-point plan for a green industrial revolution to “accelerate our progress towards net zero emissions by 2050” the time has never been better to support the green recovery & invest in renewables.
