For years, the agency's Energy Technology Perspectives (ETP) reports have been warning about the need to boost clean technologies to keep the 1.5°C or even 2°C climate targets alive.

"The world is entering a new industrial age, the age of clean energy technology manufacturing," executive director Fatih Birol emphasized during the presentation of the ETP 2023.
