A key result that also emerges from our work is that electricity markets must be modernised because existing market structures make investment in any unsubsidised low-carbon technology very difficult.

Germany has seen almost 48% of its gross electricity consumption provided from renewable energy thus far this year

Official greenhouse gas measurements place China as the world’s largest emitter, at almost 12,500 million tonnes a year,

Now, electric grids are increasingly decentralizing, giving rise to cloud-based systems that pool resources to meet fluctuating consumer demand.

Key risks for the renewables sector are reductions in direct subsidies and tax credits as observed in China, Europe, and the US, permitting barriers and a cloudier outlook for long-term electricity prices.

These goals are appropriately ambitious, while also realistic and achievable. Climate change mitigation is not a luxury but a necessity if we want to avoid a climate crisis.

Russia has 36 nuclear power units in operation and three new ones under construction. In March, Russia's Ministry for Economic Development published a draft strategy for low-carbon development to 2050. The strategy's basic scenario would see nuclear output grow from 203 TWh in 2017 to 225 TWh in 2030 and 260 TWh in 2050. State nuclear corporation Rosatom's foreign orders include 36 units, which are at various stages of implementation.

UAE strategy targets an energy mix of 44% renewables, 38% gas, 12% clean coal, and 6% nuclear.

Germany's law sets a legally binding target to achieve a carbon neutral power mix by 2050,

In April 2020, the French government issued two decrees implementing the Multi-annual Energy Plan to 2028 (Programmation pluriannuelle de l’énergie, PPE) and the National Low Carbon Strategy, which were first released in January 2019.

In tandem with renewable energy, the flexibility of nuclear will enable the transition to a cleaner world and a stronger global economy.

IAEA analysts expect an increase of global nuclear electrical generating capacity by 82% to 715 gigawatts.

The Federal Government’s announcement today to invest $1.9 billion to reduce carbon emissions paves the way for large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS)

Nuclear energy provides nearly one-third of the world's non-emitting electricity and complementing and enabling other clean energy sources, including renewables.

Adding any new expense to the economically failed Wind and Solar solution is not a solution to the root issue - intermittency and demand matching.
