Plummeting costs of renewables-Are energy scenarios lagging?

Mengzhu Xiao et al.

Summary: In this article, cost assumptions for solar and wind technologies in global, regional, and national energy scenario studies were systematically compared with actual costs and recent market auction prices. It was found that future energy scenario analyses tend to underestimate the rapid cost declines of renewable technologies, leading to an underestimation of their future role and deployment levels. The recommendation was made to establish an open database for renewable technology costs to enhance the accuracy and transparency of future energy scenarios.

The Value of Fast Transitioning to a Fully Sustainable Energy System: The Case of Turkmenistan

Rasul Satymov et al.

Summary: Turkmenistan, a country heavily reliant on fossil fuels, has the potential to transition to 100% renewable energy by 2050, with scenarios showing a mix of solar and wind power capacities. The study demonstrates that a renewable energy system, regardless of transition rate, will be more cost-effective than continuing reliance on fossil fuels, with the highest rate of renewable energy integration leading to the least cost system and quickest reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. These results could serve as a guideline for policymakers not only in Turkmenistan, but also in other countries looking to transition to renewable energy.
