GreenFire, “Our report concludes that the rapid growth in solar and wind has brought the world to a crucial turning point – likely this year – where fossil generation starts to decline at a global level.”
In April 2024, the EU’s electricity generation from fossil fuels fell to a record low of 23%. Fossil generation fell sharply compared to April 2023, even as electricity demand increased. This led to a 22% year-on-year fall in power sector emissions.
