Wind And Solar Energy Power Smart Renewable Cities Deloitte Insights Introduction. in just 10 years, renewable energy’s share of us electricity generation has doubled—from 10% in 2010 to 20% in 2020. 1 the overwhelming majority of that growth has been in solar and wind energy, which rose at compound annual growth rates of 84% and 15%, respectively, over the decade. 2 despite these impressive gains, the pace. Deloitte’s 2024 renewables industry outlook discusses how these trends could impact the industry in the coming year: regulatory boosts and brakes: historic investment could erode obstacles. reshoring clean energy: supply chains shorten and strengthen. reskilling the workforce: unlocking the talent bottleneck is key to decarbonization. As urbanization and use of renewables continue to rise, the smart renewable city (src) concept is increasingly taking hold. in its seminal report renewables (em)power smart cities, deloitte developed an src framework to identify and classify cities globally that are deploying solar and or wind power in connection with their smart city plans. Global renewable energy trends technological innovation, cost efficiencies, and increasing consumer demand are driving renewables—particularly wind and solar—to be preferred energy sources. we examine seven trends that are driving this transformation. renewables (em)power smart cities as cities expand, so does their energy use.
