Can the world rely on renewable energy? | Future Earth | BBC News
What are the challenges the world faces in the transition to renewable energy – and what are the possible solutions?

Much of western Europe is under the most extreme red heat alerts – meaning there’s a potential risk to life.
France, Spain and Italy have been hardest hit by the heatwave so far.
But why is it so hot? What can you do to stay safe? And is El Nino to blame?
We answer some of your most asked questions about the heatwave sweeping Europe with our climate and health correspondents.
We’re also joined by our teams in Paris, Madrid and the south of France.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

Yes. It's far more lucrative to go with green energy, conservation, smart power upgrades, regenerative portfolios, and natural abundance.
The hydrogen economy is also a part of the campaign, standing alongside best practices, as well.

We really have to ponder this: why do the UK citizens pay a few times MORE than most people in the world when the renewables can now be even cheaper than energy from fossil fuels? To put it into perspective, in some Asian countries that only use natural gas to generate electricity, they pay only 10-12p per kwh (without standing charge) while we are paying bloody 27p per kwh + 35-40p standing charge per day! How could ours be that expensive?
There must be something wrong with our system! Our government must fix this or everyone in the UK will continue to suffer badly, both socially and economically.

Germany here: Beware of the wind mills+solar without having el. storage. You have to install the same amount of traditional power plants, which may pop in fastly (trad. nat. gas turbines) in order to compensate so-called dark calms (no wind/sun). Here, we "managed" to get the highest el. prices world wide, industry+good jobs are fleeing to cheap energy regions. Effect for the "climate" or CO2 emissions = negative. No barrel stays in arab/russian soil -> suicidal non-sense.
If you are following the climate cult, built nuclear PPs, with heat integration = long-distance heating if needed. The uranium needed for years of power can be stored.
BTW: Do you know that interestingly RUSSIAN uranium (=devil's work) is not on the embargo list! WHY? The pharisaer USA need it for the NPPs. But our nice 4-pipe northstream PL was bombed 😞.

Where is the dividing line betweenhuman caused and natural Climate Change. Without that knowledge all the crap being spread means absolutely nothing. If the speed linit is 80 mph you know the deviding line between a speeding ticket and getting home in time for dinner is at 80 mph
So when any of these climateers claim it's "HUMAN CAUSED" it means absolutely nothing because there is no indication of what and how much is natural causes.
Natural Causes like 1000's of undersea volcanoes or the increase of the population from 2.5 billion to 8 billion in just 60 years.
How is Lightning generated forest fire "Human Caused?"…These wannabe climateers don't have the sense of pocket lint. Without Carbon, we're all dead…….only an idiot can't understand that.
Not to mention there is no TECHNOLOGY available on earth that provide and average temperature. Earth has 200 million sq miles of are. 71% of that is ocean. Everything thats water, wind, gravity and sunlight are in constant motion every millisecond of time. When some one claims 1.5 inches of sea level change, it's a good bet they know nothing.
Temperture …look at it with your own eyes on the weather channels. In one city it change from area to area by 8 or 10 degrees between breakfast and dinner. How can you possibly get an average of 1.5 degrees.
There is a serious mental absence here

Great video on renewable energy! I highly recommend the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series for outdoor enthusiasts like us. It has massive capacity, fast recharging, and versatile sockets. Plus, it's waterproof and has comprehensive protections. Check it out for reliable power during your camping trips or as a backup at home.

Of course. It is just a matter of time.
Regeneratives are available right now, and would greatly accelerate an all-sustainables global economy.
The build out of primary inputs will take some time. But, at some point renewables heavy energy production would be the norm.

The challenge of climate change and the energy transition is not the 'how' or the 'cost' but politics and nay sayers who fear change and are the target of lobby groups. Just think about this. It is cheaper to build a solar / wind with pv storage solution that generates the same amount of power than to run a equivalent capacity gas powerplant for 1 year. Think about it. How much you hate change, that is so absurdly cheap that even the most climate critical political party cannot ignore it. So what about intermittency in winter and at night? Easy we just build 7x the capacity of the fossil fuel counterparts. We would make that money back in 7 years! And the added bonus: if the wind is blowing and the sun is shining: energy will be near free. The biggest problem: What company would build so many renewables if you cant charge for it when they are generating the most? Companies will not do it, governments will need to do it. The energy transformation will shift the power from energy companies back to gouverments and the economy will be booming because power will be almost free…. The energy transition challenge is the people who are opposed to change. We need to convince people to accept the change and see the potential.

Nice, but greenwash from the aviation industry. What needs to be said is 'we need to fly less' – but will an industry based on making profit from air transport ever say 'consume less to reduce the footprint'?

Looking forward to seeing how the nuclear industry returns in strength with small modular reactors. I'm also happy to see Airbus developing hydrogen powered airplanes. We can produce the hydrogen for free from nuclear power plants!

Never fly, walk take public transport, phone, go online for conferences. There is no way for many-many decades to fly without destroying the planet. There is hope in the return of airships. Canceling methane is a hopeful move. I doubt if renewables can do the job by themselves. Modular nuclear is now cheaper and safer. fossil fuels kills 8.1 million people every year then hurricanes, wild fires, floods kills and uproots many more. Killing more indirectly by the loss of crops so by starvation. There is some greenwash in this programme. If we don't face the gravity and difficulties of the climate catastrophe honestly we will not solve it.
