More than half of all new electricity capacity added in the United States and Europe last year was from renewable power such as wind and solar, a body backed by the International Energy Agency and the UN reported. Last year was also a record year for the amount of new green power added to the grid, partly a result of shifting deployment and manufacture to emerging economies including Brazil, India and China, from flagging developed countries.
"In 2009, China produced 40 per centof the world's solar PV supply, 30 per centof the world's wind turbines, up from 10 per centin 2007," REN21, or the Renewable Energy Policy Network for the 21st Century, said in a report on Thursday.
