The G7 should set a goal to triple their renewable capacity

The G7 is urged to set a goal to triple its renewable energy capacity by 2030, as current collective targets only aim for a doubling. This alignment is presented as necessary to meet the global goal agreed upon at COP28 and to keep the 1.5C temperature goal within reach.

• While G7 members agreed to the COP28 pledge to triple global renewable capacity by 2030, their current collective targets would only result in a doubling of capacity.
• Analysis based on 1.5C compliant IPCC scenarios suggests that for the world to triple renewables, the OECD region—used as a proxy for the G7—would need to increase its renewable capacity by 3.1 times between 2022 and 2030.
• The requirement for capacity increases varies by region; for instance, the Middle East and North Africa would need an 11.8X increase from 2022 levels to meet 1.5C scenarios.
