Power grid bottlenecks threaten global clean energy growth in 2026
The Director-General of the International Renewable Energy Agency, Francesco La Camera, warned that clean energy growth may slow in 2026. This would be the first such slowdown in five years. The decline is attributed to trade barriers and inadequate electricity transmission networks. Solar and wind power capacity has seen annual expansion since 2021.
Global growth in clean energy capacity is expected to slow in 2026 for the first time in five years, as inadequate electricity transmission networks and trade barriers hamper the expansion of renewable energy, International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) Director-General Francesco La Camera has warned. Solar and wind power capacity has expanded annually since 2021, when … The post Power grid bottlenecks threaten global clean energy growth in 2026 appeared first on Times Kuwait .
