Its contribution to
final energy demand is five times higher than wind and solar PV combined, even when inefficient and unsustainable traditional biomass, such as the use of wood and dung for cooking, is excluded.
But, without further policy efforts, these benefits are unlikely to be realised as less than a third of global
final energy demand is covered by efficiency standards today.
So what if we continue current technology - forcing policies, but eventually have to concede that we can not push these technologies beyond about a quarter of
final energy demand.

demand response and
energy storage.
Assertion: «getting anywhere close to 20 % of our
final energy from RES will require a total redesign of the power system with heavy investments in flexible power plants, long distance transmission lines,

Although SHC only makes a modest contribution to world
energy demand at present, the roadmap envisages that, if governments and industry took concerted action, solar
energy could annually produce more than 16 % of total
final energy use for low - temperature heat and nearly 17 % for cooling by around 2050.
