A large part of this potential comes from six relatively standardized categories: solar and wind energy; efficient appliances; efficient passenger cars; afforestation and stopping deforestation. This has raised hopes that emissions have peaked, as they must by 2020 to remain on a successful climate trajectory.

Part of the IEA’s flagship World Energy Outlook series, the report underscores that the mineral requirements of an energy system powered by clean energy technologies differ profoundly from one that runs on fossil fuels. However, in climate-driven scenarios, these positions are reversed well before 2040.

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. Smart grids, for example, make it easier and cheaper to replace fossil-fired power with renewables without jeopardizing the reliability of the energy system.
