The world added 50% more renewable capacity in 2023 than in 2022 –and that means it has a real chance of achieving the goal set by governments at the COP28 climate change conference of tripling global capacity by 2030. The increases in renewable energy capacity in the US, Europe, and Brazil also hit all-time highs.

Removing fossil fuel subsidies would have only a small effect on CO 2 emissions and renewable energy use, according to a new study led by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and published in the journal Nature. That means that in some cases the removal of subsidies causes a switch to more emissions-intensive coal.
