Industry organisation the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) says governments need to take dramatic action to scale up wind and renewable energy in this decade, and to address energy security and climate crises ahead of the international climate meeting the Conference of the Parties 27 (COP27). If the world is to get on track for 1.5 °C-compliant pathway (above preindustrial levels) to net zero, yearly global wind energy installations must quadruple to about 390 GW/y by 2030, according to the International Energy Agency and, by 2050, wind energy must generate more than one-third of global electricity, up from 6% today.
