This is a supplement to the WMO State of the Climate 2023 report. It expands on the summary of significant high-impact events in the main report, with a broader range of events included, including some events which were climatically extreme but had limited immediate impacts.

A new report from WMO shows that records were once again broken, and in some cases smashed, for greenhouse gas levels, surface temperatures, ocean heat and acidification, sea level rise, Antarctic sea ice cover and glacier retreat.

The report builds on a yearlong research and consultative process among a wide range of stakeholders across sectors. It was conceived as a reference document bringing together different perspectives to analyse the benefits and identify the best practices to mitigate the potential negative impacts of renewables deployment.

Renewables 2023 is the IEA’s primary analysis on the sector, based on current policies and market developments. It forecasts the deployment of renewable energy technologies in electricity, transport and heat to 2028 while also exploring key challenges to the industry and identifying barriers to faster growth.

IRENA produces comprehensive, reliable datasets on renewable energy capacity and use worldwide. This statistical publication presents renewable energy statistics for the last decade (2013-2023).

Reviews the current status of renewable electricity in Canada in two ways: 1) Explores recent trends in both electricity capacity and generation for each province and territory in Canada 2) Explores a short-term outlook for planned capacity changes in each province and territory.

Canada has only begun to scratch the surface of its vast and untapped wind and solar energy resources. At the end of 2023, we had 21.9 GW of wind energy, solar energy and energy storage installed capacity across Canada. Check out more statistics here!

Renewable energy sources are growing quickly and will play a vital role in tackling climate change. This article looks at the data on renewable energy technologies across the world; what share of energy they account for today, and how quickly this is changing.

Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) is an international organization that works in partnership with the United Nations and leaders in government, the private sector, financial institutions, civil society and philanthropies to drive faster action towards the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7).

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on sustainable energy.

Publishing monthly, Nature Energy is dedicated to exploring all aspects of energy provision discussions, from the generation and storage of energy, to its distribution and management, the needs and demands of the different actors, and the impacts that energy technologies and policies have on societies.

Nature Climate Change is a monthly journal dedicated to publishing the most significant and cutting-edge research on the nature, underlying causes or impacts of global climate change and its implications for the economy, policy and the world at large.

The Official Journal of World Renewable Energy Congress. An Open Access journal publishing innovative papers in Renewable Energy. REES promotes and supports papers and special issues that contribute to the achievement of the UN's sustainable development goals

Energy and Climate Change is an interdisciplinary journal covering the intersection of energy and climate-related fields, spanning the physical and social sciences, with the aim of identifying real solutions and strategies

The journal is interested in articles which have a significant social science component. These include articles that address the social drivers or consequences of environmental change, or social and policy processes that seek to address problems of environmental change.
