New tool tips solar to supply 50% of global energy demand by 2035

, /PRNewswire/ – A new climate modeling tool is predicting a seismic shift in energy, spelling out how over half of global energy demand will be met by solar power by 2035. The S-Curve model, developed by physicist and solar industry pioneer, Andrew Birch, reveals that a clean transition is inevitable, on current known trends. “On current growth trends, solar is on track to displace 50% of traditional energy supply within a decade—this should sc…
