Over the past 10 years, the world has seen a rise in renewable energy use. Researchers found that renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, grew significantly between 2012 and 2021. Despite this growth, fossil fuels are still the main source of energy globally. In 2021, about 13% of electricity worldwide came from renewables, showing an upward trend from previous years. The European Union stands out for its higher use of renewable energy, but other regions are catching up. Overall, the shift towards renewable energy is essential for sustainable development. Renewable energy is making a positive impact, with its share in global energy consumption quadrupling from 2012 to 2021.
