The largest growth took place in China, which commissioned as much solar in 2023 as the entire world did in 2022, while China’s wind power additions rose by 66% year-over-year. Solar and wind account for 95% of the expansion, with renewables overtaking coal to become the largest source of global electricity generation by early 2025.

The IEA said that this reflects the continued domination of fossil fuels—particularly coal—in the energy mix and the slow uptake of other, lower-carbon supply technologies. Coal technologies continue to dominate growth in power generation. Around half of coal-fired power plants built in 2011 use inefficient technologies.

Now with a pending war with China, an economic collapse resulting from massive debt and corporate greed plus the environmental disaster of climate change edging ever closer, those in power have decided that our insurance will be to invest in more oil, gas and coal.

In the US, a combination of demand reduction and displacement of coal-fired power by gas-fired generation is the lowest cost way to reduce CO 2 emissions by up to 50%. The US should support unconventional natural gas development outside US, particularly in Europe and China, as a means of diversifying the natural gas supply base.

The second reason is that the grid we have is built out to places where there were coal mines and hydropower dams, not where there’s the best wind and sun.

Finally, we show that nickel concentrations in South China sediments increased sharply at the extinction, probably as a consequence of massive Siberian volcanism, enabling a methanogenic expansion by removal of nickel limitation. Other proposals suggest secondary effects of the volcanism—such as raging coal fires—as the mechanism.
