The shadow of the Paris Agreement looms large over the IEA's report.
The International Energy Agency's wide-ranging report comes as the planet gears up for the COP26 climate change summit in Glasgow, Scotland.
The International Energy Agency issued a sobering warning Wednesday, claiming that clean energy progress remained "far too slow to put global emissions into sustained decline towards net zero." The IEA's report said that while electric vehicle sales achieved new records in 2020 and renewable sources such as wind and solar photovoltaic continued their rapid growth, "every data point showing the speed of change in energy can be countered by another showing the stubbornness of the status quo." Photovoltaic refers to a way of directly converting light from the sun into electricity.
