Earth's «energy budget» can be calculated with a simple arithmetical formula: take the total amount of energy that enters the Earth system each day from the sun and subtract the total amount of infrared energy that escapes the Earth system each day back in space.

Although solar had the largest share in terms of capacity, of the $ 6 billion devoted to the round, only around 38 % of the budget — $ 2.32 billion — was assigned to solar, while another 46 % — $ 2.76 billion — went to wind power projects, with the remaining amount being left to the other aforementioned renewable energy sources.

The energy budget — the amount of energy that enters and exits the Earth's atmosphere each day — is a clear calculation of our effect on the Earth's climate.

A significant amount of energy is expended on making emission budgets, arguing about them and designing policy pathways consistent with them.

«To better monitor Earth's energy budget and its consequences, the ocean is most important to consider because the amount of heat it can store is extremely large when compared to the land or atmospheric capacity,» said Yan.
