Renewable Energy Revolution: Declining Costs, Surging Capacity

Renewable Energy Revolution: Declining Costs, Surging Capacity | Social Mercor | Scoop.it
From cleantechnica.com - February 4, 6:07 AM

The renewable energy revolution is under way. Renewable power generation now accounts for around 50% of all new power generation capacity installed worldwide.


The combination of rapid deployment and high learning rates for technology “has produced a virtuous circle that is leading to significant cost declines and is helping fuel a renewable revolution,” according to a new global study of renewable power generation costs in 2012 produced by IRENA, the International Renewable Energy Agency, which announced it isestablishing its global headquarters in the United Arab Emirates during last week’s Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week.

 

Additions to global wind power generation capacity totalled 41 gigawatts (GW) in 2011, according to IRENA’s “Renewable Power Generation Costs in 2012: An Overview.” That’s in addition to 30 GW of new solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity generation capacity, 25 GW of hydro power, 6 GW of biomass, 0.5 GW of concentrated solar power (CSP), and 0.1 GW of new geothermal power capacity.

Helmuth war ein besessener Schreiber gewesen. Er schrieb mit Herzblut und rang mit der altmodischen Schreibmaschine ohne Stromanschluss. Es war wie Filmmusik, wie begleitender Trommelwirbel.

Leseprobe: Es hätte Helmuth klar sein sollen, dass Vera nicht in der Lage war, komplexe Handlungen zu verstehen. Und dass Braxton ihr gefiel - das hätte er voraussagen können. Smart, hart, intelligent und gefürchtet, war er der Schrecken der Unterwelt. Die Frauen mochten ihn. Nein, sie lagen ihm zu Füßen.
