    An absolute pleasure to meet w/ President @nayibbukele on energy priorities, including #greenhydrogen & geothermal energy. I expressed my deep appreciation for #ElSalvador’s leadership in advancing the #energytransition at home & in Central America.

    We just released @IRENA’s new costs report, showing #renewables are increasingly the cheapest source of new electricity. The message is clear: The case for new & much of the existing coal power generation is environmentally & economically unjustifiable. bit.ly/373h14J

    #Renewables are multiplier solutions to build climate-proof energy systems, improve energy security & universal access. I am humbled to have been appointed for a new term by @IRENA members. I will work tirelessly to realise our new mission that takes the Agency towards 2030.

    We simply cannot #3xRenewables without the infrastructure to support it. I fully endorse #COP29’s Energy Initiatives and urge countries to rally behind them to set the right conditions for the transformative change we urgently need.

    Saudi Arabia is an important energy player that recognizes a rapidly evolving energy landscape. Excellent meeting w/ @MoEnergy_Saudi Minister H.E. Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman Al Saud in Riyadh. The Kingdom is making bold moves in the right direction, and we are here to support.

    Proud to present @IRENA’s geopolitics report on critical materials to @UN SG @antonioguterres. Securing diverse, sustainable access to these critical materials is essential to decentralise supply chains and sustain the acceleration of the energy transition.

    .@IRENA’s World #EnergyTransitions Outlook is out! Our energy system can be aligned with the 1.5°C climate goal by prioritising technologies largely available today. They can be deployed at scale by 2030 & make a meaningful shift toward #netzero by 2050: bit.ly/3vonbbj

    I welcome that tripling of #renewables & doubling energy efficiency by 2030 has been recognized by #COP28 as priority #climateaction. This is monumental. @IRENA believe it's the most realistic course-correction to urgently overcome systematic barriers stemming from fossil fuels.
