Wind and solar could replace fossil fuels 100 times over
New data has shown that the technical potential of renewable energy sources could meet current electricity needs 100 times over.
The research comes from climate and energy think tanks Carbon Tracker and Ember Climate. It shows that the transition from fossil fuels to renewables is not only possible, but could happen much sooner than first expected. The data in this report effectively means there are no technological, physical or economic barriers preventing renewable resources from taking over from fossil fuels.
Harry Benham is the report co-author and chairman, and he said global consumption in 2019 was 65 petawatt hours. The ceiling of solar’s technological potential meant that we could harvest 5,800 petawatt hours – and that is before factoring in wind.
