<\/figure>\n\n\n\nChina, once again, is acting as a driving force behind the global energy transition. The growth of renewables and electric vehicles in that country is spectacular, and its leadership is unquestionable. While others hesitate, China executes, learns quickly, and scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It's not all good news, however. One of the major obstacles to the current energy system is the explosive growth of data centers, fueled by the intensive use of Artificial Intelligence. These centers consume enormous amounts of energy and are absorbing a significant portion of the new renewable generation capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It's a paradox of technological progress: we're advancing in efficiency, but at the same time, we're increasing total demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although the overall outlook is moderately positive, we cannot become complacent. The pace of change needed to curb climate change is greater than what is actually happening. Emissions continue to rise, and we are approaching dangerous limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many scientists agree that we have already exceeded the threshold set in the Paris Agreement. The consequences are visible: more intense heat waves, more violent storms, and increasingly frequent extreme weather events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most positive note is that the change is not being driven by political rhetoric, but by the real economy and technology. And that combination is far more powerful than any self-serving ideology. When something is cheaper, more efficient, and more competitive, it ultimately prevails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking at the progress made, there are reasons for optimism, but not for complacency. The challenge remains enormous, and the effort ahead considerable. The question is simple:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do we want to leave our descendants a world similar to the one we inherited, or one worse?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If we don't act with sufficient determination, someone will have every right to hold us accountable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
