Coal-heavy China and gas-heavy U.S. play catch-up.<\/li><li>Wind and solar are now cheapest across more than two-thirds of the world. By 2030 they undercut commissioned coal and gas almost everywhere. <\/li><li>Consumer energy decisions such as rooftop solar and behind-the-meter batteries help shape an increasingly decentralized grid the world over.<\/li><li>Batteries, gas peakers and dynamic demand help wind and solar reach more than 80% penetration in some markets.<\/li><li>Coal continues to grow in Asia, but collapses everywhere else and peaks globally in 2026.<\/li><li>Gas-fired power grows just 0.6% per year to 2050, supplying system back-up and flexibility rather than bulk electricity in most markets.<\/li><li>Making heat and transport electric lowers emissions. The challenge is scale.<\/li><li>To keep an electrified energy sector on a 2-degree trajectory, we will need to deploy additional zero-carbon technologies that are dispatchable and economic running at low capacity factors, or technology that can capture and sequester emissions at scale.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Link:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/about.bnef.com\/new-energy-outlook\/\">https:\/\/about.bnef.com\/new-energy-outlook\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: Consider the following statement regarding New Energy Outlook Report, 2019:(1) Wind and solar energy make up almost 50% of world electricity in 2050(2) Coal energy continues to grow in Asia, but collapses everywhere else and peaks globally in 2026 Correct statement\/s is\/are: (a) Only (1) (b) Only (2) (c) Both(1) and (2) (d) None [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":77128,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1087],"tags":[2529],"class_list":["post-77127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-intne","tag-international-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=77127"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77127\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/77128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=77127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=77127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.edristi.in\/hi\/%e0%a4%b9%e0%a5%8b%e0%a4%ae\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=77127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
