About Wind power and solar energy around the world
Globally we see that hydropower is by far the largest modern renewable source. However, we also see wind and solar power both growing rapidly.

In this year's World Wind Energy Association Annual Report, we proudly present unprecedented achievements in wind energy installations across our planet. 2023 has been a record-breaking year, with a total global capacity now exceeding 1’047’288 Megawatt, thanks to the addition of 116 Gigawatt of new capacity — a staggering 12,5% growth .
Solar PV and wind will account for 95% of global renewable expansion, benefiting from lower generation costs than both fossil and non‑fossil fuel alternatives. Over the coming five years, several renewable energy milestones are expected to be achieved: In 2024, wind and solar PV together generate more electricity than hydropower.
The chart below shows the percentage of global electricity production that comes from nuclear or renewable energy, such as solar, wind, hydropower, wind and tidal, and some biomass. Globally, more than a third of our electricity comes from low-carbon sources.
As of 2022, solar made up 4.5% of global electricity generation and wind made up 7.5%, for a total of 12%. According to the State of Climate Action 2023 report, solar and wind together need to make up 57% to 78% of the global electricity mix by 2030 for the world to be on track for a net-zero emissions future.
