Speeding up renewable energy – bottlenecks and how you resolve them

The current energy crisis and 2050 net-zero targets point in the same direction: the need for an energy system that is decarbonized, low-cost and resilient. The world has a viable pathway, which will require unprecedented transformation, a massive scale-up of clean power generation, related infrastructure and the necessary minerals and materials.

Globally, renewable energy projects are suffering long lead and permitting times, among other challenges such as supply-chain bottlenecks, a growing skills gap, lack of collaboration with local communities, geopolitics, and trade-offs between infrastructure build-out and biodiversity loss.
