Wed-27-2016 Аlternative energy will reach a grid parity with coal-fired power stations for 15 years

One of the factors contributing to this effect may be the international community striving for climate protection on the planet.

Over the past few years, the experts point out the development of solar energy, has successfully emerged from the crisis which arose in the industry after the abolition of state support in the US and the European Union. It is noted that achieving commercial success helped photovoltaic technology development and cost reduction. According to the forecasts of the International Energy Association, while maintaining the current rate by 2030 alternative energy will occupy the third position in the list of global resources of power generation, rising from the fifth place occupied by the industry to date.

Also, the IEA analysts predict that coal will maintain its key source of energy in 2030, but its value will gradually decrease. In addition, there are calls for governments to refuse to subsidize the coal industry, which will reduce the level of pollution. Maria van der Hoeven, executive director of the International Energy Association, emphasized that time is an important factor on the way to reduce emissions and energy industry can play a key role in this regard. “As more and more countries are coming to a consensus on this issue, you must make sure that the steps taken are correct and all the commitments are carried out in full,” she said.
