Wind and solar power expands rapidly, driven by increasing cost competitiveness and policies supporting a shift to low-carbon electricity and green hydrogen.
The use of modern bioenergy – modern solid biomass (such as wood pellets), biofuels and biomethane – increases significantly, helping to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors and processes, and displacing the use of traditional biomass – such as waste wood and agricultural residues – for cooking and heating.
