It was a strong year for renewable power expansion in 2025, with solar installations helping push renewables to nearly half of global electricity capacity, but that does not mean the world is yet on pace to meet its renewable energy commitments.
The International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) 2026 Renewable Capacity Statistics report, published on Wednesday, found that renewables dominated new power additions last year, accounting for 85.6 percent of global capacity expansion.
Solar, in turn, was the dominant renewable technology, accounting for nearly three-quarters of last year’s renewable capacity additions.
