Energy Transition: Powering it with Technology
In the 2021 World Energy Outlook (WEO) report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) gave a rather disheartening prediction: The world can only reduce carbon emissions by 40% by 2050 going by the current national pledges. As the ravages of the global pandemic subside, the world must devise ways to accelerate the energy transition.
