The IEA released a report predicting that the world is set to make abundant energy by the second half of the decade given the surge in batteries and solar panels but that there’ll also be an excess of fossil fuels. It notes that the world is still way off from what’s needed to meet the warming cap set by the Paris Agreement — because emissions would decline too slowly at the current rate. Predictably, China is driving global energy trends for both clean energy and fossil fuels.
