Alone, China's energy consumption is growing about 5 percent. However, the global energy supply by 2050 can be a full commitment to renewable energy - with a financial gain. This is the new WWF report of Energy, the larger study on this topic. Along with the consultancy Ecofys, WWF has assessed whether the world can be completely supplied by 2050 with renewable and sustainable energy. The most ambitious of its kind shows that the actual use of modern technology, global energy demand can be up to 95 percent covered by renewable energies. And it is very likely can not be replaced by the new developments and the remaining 5 percent of non-renewable energy such as oil, coal or natural gas.
The investments required to be the first around a billion euros a year. That sounds like a lot, but half a billion euros a year to give states today only to subsidize fossil fuels. In the long term sustainable strategy pays not only for the environment and security of supply but also for the economy. Thanks to investments in energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption compared with the usual clear, which also reduces energy costs.
According to calculations by Ecofys save a sustainable scenario in the year 2050 the sum of four million euros a year. This will include the avoided costs of climate change, WWF scenario can keep global warming below the dangerous two degrees.
And despite the growth: The Energy Report expects a comparison with 2000 production three times higher and almost equal mobility of rapid growth. Stimulate the necessary investments, especially the clean technology industry and finance, in which Switzerland is well positioned.
The strategy of sustainability is a value only for Switzerland, was recently the study "Energy efficiency and renewable energies - economic alternative to large power plant" shown. "You can not go wrong if we are in Switzerland and around the world entirely and exclusively on energy efficiency and renewable energy, " said Patrick Hofstetter, climate and energy director of WWF Switzerland. "Renewable energy is not the best option is the only one."
