As we approach 2025, the impact of climate change is increasingly drawing attention. Current trends show a rising awareness of extreme weather phenomena, prompting a collective consciousness. At the same time, renewable energies are taking center stage, promising innovation and hope. There is a significant rise in the transparency of supply chains and a growing importance of sustainability reports. While major economic powers seek to reduce their dependency on fossil fuels, some nations aim for a future where alternative energy sources become fundamental.
On the horizon of 2025, the scale of climate change continues to concern, with trends confirming an acceleration of extreme phenomena. In response, growing efforts are focused on renewable energy, aiming to reduce dependency on fossil fuels. The multiannual energy program from 2025 to 2030 aims to improve the performance of sustainable energy sources, such as geothermal energy, while involving supply chain transparency. The French strategy for energy and climate, for example, proposes to quadruple efforts for renewable heat. Globally, the challenge is to facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy, with an ambitious goal of 100% renewable energy by 2050. However, it is crucial to note that the production of gas and oil reserves could decrease significantly by 2030. Thus, the need to innovate and adapt is more pressing than ever, with major events like OWNE 2024 likely to mark a turning point in the future of energy.
On the Horizon of 2025: The Scale of Climate Change
Concerns about climate change are growing, signaling a turning point for our society. As projections for 2025 paint a worrying picture, it becomes essential to acknowledge these forecast alerts. Future climate observations should confirm current trends, and 2025 could mark the beginning of a deeper awareness of our environmental impacts. The work of the parliamentary office presents alarming reports on future transformations, such as the official report here, which explains the possible unfolding of these massive climate changes.
Renewable Energies as a Pillar of Energy Transition
In 2025, the growth of renewable energies plays a crucial role in our energy transition. They are expected to represent a significant share of electricity production. The ambitious targets proposed by the European framework for 2030 aim to promote a significant increase in the use of renewable energies, as detailed in the EU climate framework. Furthermore, with the rise of offshore wind energy, events like OWNE 2024 are major catalysts for the implementation of sustainable technologies. This ideal of growth is supported by the increase in initiatives such as the greater use of hydrogen, whose future application could revolutionize our energy consumption, as explained here.
The Impact of Energy Consumption on Our Future
The increase in energy consumption is inevitable and reached historic highs in 2023. The question then arises whether this exacerbated consumption will continue.
Projected increases in electricity demand could both favor the adoption of green energies and create increased pressure on natural resources. To better understand this dynamic, the analysis of global growth of rooftops for clean energy offers insights. Moreover, according to the forecast report prepared by RTE, the scenarios for electricity production and consumption established for 2050 (learn more here) illustrate the various paths our energy transition might take. Turning to innovative solutions such as solar storage or the use of hydrogen could be one of the major keys to this transition. For those looking to understand the events that will characterize this era, ‘Solar & Storage Live in Zurich’ could be an unmissable event.
