The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) reported on Tuesday that renewable energy capacity worldwide grew by 9.6% last year. Despite this impressive growth, IRENA warned that the rate of expansion must triple to limit global warming.
IRENA's annual report on renewable energy statistics said global renewable energy capacity amounted to 3,372 GW at the end of last year, some 295 GW or 9.6% higher than the previous year.
