U.S. energy-related CO 2 emissions declined by 3%, or 134 million metric tons (MMmt), in 2023. Most of this decrease occurred in the electric power sector, with smaller reductions in the residential and commercial sectors. Emissions from the industrial and transportation sectors remained like those in 2022. Figure data.

In July 2021 China announced plans to install over 30 GW of energy storage by 2025 (excluding pumped-storage hydropower), a more than three-fold increase on its installed capacity as of 2022. The United States'' Inflation Reduction Act, passed in August 2022, includes an investment tax credit for sta nd-alone storage, which is expected to boost the …
Breaking records: The UK''s renewable energy in numbers1. 2022 was the UK''s highest year on record for zero carbon generation so far at 138 terawatt-hours (TWh), with 133TWh generated in 2023, and the records for renewables continue to come. December 2023 was the 15th month in a row where zero-carbon generation produced more than fossil fuel ...

IEA analysis finds that the cost of producing hydrogen from renewable electricity could fall 30% by 2030 as a result of declining costs of renewables and the scaling up of hydrogen production. Fuel cells, refuelling equipment and electrolysers (which produce hydrogen from electricity and water) can all benefit from mass manufacturing.
