Our research reveals a projected annual investment requirement of $317 billion in wind and solar energy infrastructure, representing a threefold increase compared to the historical average of approximately $100 billion per year.
“Our results show that is true, and that all else equal, more solar and wind means greater storage value. That said, as wind and solar get cheaper over time, that can reduce the value storage derives from lowering renewable energy curtailment and avoiding wind and solar capacity investments.
Some storage technologies today are shown to add value to solar and wind energy, but cost reduction is needed to reach widespread profitability.
In 2023, each dollar invested in wind and solar PV yielded 2.5 times more energy output than a dollar spent on the same technologies a decade prior. In 2015, the ratio of clean power to unabated fossil fuel power investments was roughly 2:1. In 2024, this ratio is set to reach 10:1.
The fact that solar and wind will be responsible for the majority of investment in the energy supply sector indicates that more efforts beyond 2030 are required, with trillions of dollars involved [, , ].
In the core scenario, results indicate that average annual wind and solar investment needs are $317 billion per year between 2020 and 2060, or 2.3 % of China's GDP in 2020. The average annual investment is $340 billion if we only look at the period between 2024 and 2060. The overall investment reaches $12.7 trillion for the entire 40 years.
