The United Nations, backed by new reports from IRENA, has announced that renewable energy has reached a global tipping point, with 90% of new projects now cheaper than fossil fuel alternatives. UN Secretary-General António Guterres emphasized that market forces, not just environmental concerns, are driving the shift, as solar and wind power become increasingly cost-effective and widespread. Renewables accounted for over 92% of new electricity capacity in 2024, signaling the decline of the fossil fuel era. Guterres called on governments and the tech sector to accelerate the transition, especially as energy-hungry data centers expand. The UN frames this moment as a unique economic and environmental opportunity to build a fairer, greener, and more inclusive future.
