For<br \/>\nwind and solar thats &#8220;50-by-50&#8221; \u2013 with these technologies supplying almost 50% of world electricity by 2050, ending the era of fossil fuel dominance in the power sector.<\/p>\n<p>2.<strong>Solar sees the most growth, rising from 2% of the world electricity generation today,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>to 22% in 2050.<\/strong><br \/>\nWe expect around 330kW in every 1MW of that PV to be deployed behind-the-meter by<br \/>\nhouseholds and business \u2013 accounting for 5% of world electricity in 2050. Wind generates<br \/>\n26% of the world\u2019s electricity in 2050, compared with 5% today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Hydro sees very modest growth, and nuclear stays practically flat.\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nHydro is constrained by resource availability and nuclear by a combination of high costs and<br \/>\na lack of flexibility to complement cheap renewables.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.Batteries, peakers and dynamic demand help wind and solar reach more than 80%<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>penetration in some markets.<\/strong><br \/>\nAround 359GW of batteries are added to the power system to help shift excess generation to<br \/>\ntimes when the wind is not blowing and sun is not shining. Demand-side flexibility also helps<br \/>\nbetter integrate variable renewable energy. This includes dynamic EV charging, where<br \/>\nvehicles are plugged in when idle, drawing a charge determined by time-of-use tariffs and<br \/>\ndemand response.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">INVESTMENTS<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. We see $13.3 trillion invested in new power generation assets over the 32 years to<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>2050.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of this, 77% goes to renewables. Wind attracts $5.3 trillion and solar $4.2 trillion, and<br \/>\nanother $843 billion goes to batteries. Investments in new fossil fuel plants doesn\u2019t exceed $2<br \/>\ntrillion. This work out to around $416 billion per year.As demand grows, so too does the grid, with distribution and transmission expansion needing<br \/>\nan estimated $11.4 trillion to 2050.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. The investment total funds 15,145GW of new power plants between 2019 and 2050, of<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>which 80% is zero carbon.<\/strong><br \/>\nA further 1,666 GW of non-generating, flexible capacity, such as batteries and demand<br \/>\nresponse, are installed as well. PV sees a fourteen-fold increase and wind a six-fold increase.<\/p>\n<p>Link to the original text: <a href=\"https:\/\/cutt.ly\/bogYLfx\">https:\/\/cutt.ly\/bogYLfx<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In New Energy Outlook 2019 BloombergNEF provides its vision of how the electricity market will evolve, highlighting the following global [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":135,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[125],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22541","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>6 global results &amp;
