The International Energy Agency’s 2024 World Energy Outlook described renewables expanding at record pace, led by solar, and generating just under half of the world’s electricity in 2030, ahead of power from fossil fuels. At the same time, demand for fossil fuels is projected to peak by the end of the decade.

While solar generation falls, electricity demand is expected to rise. That kind of mismatch in supply and demand is what can lead to outages. Hydropower and gas are supposed to make up for most of the the shortfall in solar energy. But a partial eclipse can persist for several hours. Put simply: more gas, more pollution.
