# Renewables Approach 50% of Global Electricity Capacity: Why Companies Should Act Now

> The page presents the rapid expansion of global renewable-electricity capacity and argues that companies can use self-generation, Power Purchase Agreements and energy-efficiency measures to reduce exposure to energy-market volatility.

## Page details

- **Source language:** Italian
- **Content type:** Article
- **Original title:** Le Rinnovabili Sfiorano il 50% della Capacità Elettrica Globale: Perché le Aziende Devono Agire Ora
- **English title:** Renewables Approach 50% of Global Electricity Capacity: Why Companies Should Act Now
- **Source URL:** https://weeg.it/notizie/le-rinnovabili-50-della-capacita-elettrica-globale/
- **Summary:** The article reports global renewable-capacity figures for 2025, discusses the pace required to reach 2030 goals, and presents White Energy solutions for businesses seeking renewable generation and lower energy costs.

## Global renewable-capacity figures

The page states that global renewable-energy capacity reached **5,149 GW** at the end of 2025, representing **49.4%** of total installed electricity capacity worldwide.

It reports that **692 GW** of renewable capacity was added during 2025, equivalent to a **15.5%** annual increase. Solar photovoltaics accounted for about three quarters of that expansion, with **511 GW** of new capacity.

The article links these figures to data from IRENA, the International Renewable Energy Agency.

## Europe, the G20 and the 2030 objective

According to the page:

- Europe added **76.8 GW**, an increase of **9.0%** in the latest year discussed;
- G20 countries hold **4,210 GW**, or **81.8%** of global renewable capacity;
- the global objective associated on the page with COP28 is to triple renewable capacity by 2030, reaching about **11.17 TW**.

The article uses these figures to frame renewable-energy investment as a competitiveness issue for companies as well as an environmental transition.

## Business implications described by the article

The page argues that companies investing in self-generation can reduce their exposure to fluctuations in fossil-energy prices and stabilize part of their future energy costs. It presents delayed action as a potential competitive disadvantage while renewable capacity continues to grow rapidly.

These statements are the strategic interpretation presented by the article rather than independent forecasts added to this document.

## Solutions presented by White Energy

The page describes three main intervention models:

- **Power Purchase Agreement (PPA):** White Energy handles the design, financing, installation and maintenance of a photovoltaic system, while the company buys the generated electricity under the contractual model described on the page.
- **Turnkey photovoltaic systems:** for companies that prefer to own the asset, the service covers feasibility, design and grid connection with the aim of optimizing technical yield and return on investment.
- **Energy efficiency and diagnosis:** analysis of consumption profiles is used to identify inefficiencies and reduce energy demand alongside renewable generation.

The article positions these tools as ways to pursue greater energy independence without treating renewable generation as an isolated technical intervention.
