The worldwide energy framework is rapidly changing. Different signals highlight the already happening energy transition: an annual renewable energy installed capacity which overcomes the fossil and nuclear one and decreasing prices of clean technologies. Are China and USA the leading actors of this epic change? An article of Gianni Silvestrini, scientific director of QualEnergia.it.
The 2015 will be a very important year. It could mark the start of the decline of fossil fuels subsequent to the Paris agreements, an appointment preceded by very interesting signs. Beside a slightly weary Europe, which has fixed its own reduction goals in line with the 2°C target, but which seems to have lost the enthusiasm it had in Kyoto, it is worth noting the active approach of Obama, anything but a “lame duck”.
