This document summarizes the IEA's first medium-term renewable energy market report, which forecasts renewable electricity capacity and generation globally over the next 5 years. It finds that renewable power growth will accelerate compared to the previous period, led by a 40% increase in non-hydro renewable generation worldwide. China is expected to account for 40% of this growth, driven by government targets and manufacturing growth, while deployment spreads out to more countries. However, economic uncertainties could weigh on financing for renewable projects in the medium term.
