Description: Bar chart (column graph) of the number of gigawatts of w:renewable energy capacity (2011- ), as reported by the w:International Energy Agency. Source for data through 2020: Renewable Energy Market Update 2021 / Renewable electricity / Renewables deployment geared up in 2020, establishing a “new normal” for capacity additions in 2021 and 2022. IEA.org. International Energy Agency (May 2021). Archived from the original on 11 May 2021. Archive thereof: https://web.archive.org/web/20210511221837/https://www.iea.org/reports/renewable-energy-market-update-2021/renewable-electricity Quote from source: "Despite pandemic-induced supply chain challenges and construction delays, renewable capacity additions in 2020 expanded by more than 45% from 2019, and broke another record. An exceptional 90% rise in global wind capacity additions led the expansion. Also underpinning this record growth was the 23% expansion of new solar PV installations to almost 135 GW in 2020. * * * * * * The exceptional level of renewable energy capacity additions is expected to be maintained, with 270 GW becoming operational in 2021 and 280 GW in 2022. This expansion exceeds the record-level annual capacity additions of 2017-2019 by over 50%, such that renewables are expected to account for 90% of total global power capacity increases in both 2021 and 2022."
