The global energy landscape is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the increasing urgency to meet climate goals and ensure energy security. The year 2023 marked a critical point in this transition, with international commitments, such as those reinforced at COP28, calling for a tripling of renewable energy capacity and a doubling of energy efficiency by 2030. This shift is essential for limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
Renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and hydropower, are crucial in the decarbonization of energy systems. However, their generation potential is directly influenced by climate variability. Understanding the relationship between climate patterns and energy generation is key to improving reliability and stability in energy planning. The transition from La Niña to a mature El…
