Welcome to Zero. I am Akshatrati. This week, one goal, two technologies, three times the renewables.

It's day five of COP, and it's been busy around here. Over the weekend, we heard leaders

from more than 150 countries wanting to secure a more ambitious deal on tackling climate change.

My country is experiencing devastating impacts of climate change. This crisis must never be seen as a distant threat.

Let's make this call the first one,

where the benefits of our concrete commitments

exceed our excuses and the carbon footprint of the planes we arrived on.

There have already been some significant successes,

including the announcement of half a billion dollars

is set up the loss and damage fund.

And of course, there have been many, many side deals,

which you can read about on Bloomberg.com for free during these two weeks of call.

But a lot still remains to be agreed on, including the goal to triple renewables globally by 2030.

If it's achieved, electricity will be the first economic sector to get on track for net zero by 2050.

Currently, the world has about 3.6 terawatts of renewables installed.

That took us more than two decades to build.

Tripling it would mean getting to 11 terawatts in just seven years.

That is a lot of solar panels and wind turbines to deploy.

And there are other challenges, like building out battery storage and grids all around the world.

So how exactly are we going to do it?

To find out, I spoke with Jenny Chase, one of the lead authors of a new report by Bloomberg

NEF.
