Hitting that percentage mark was thanks to continued expansion in wind and solar energy, which represented 13.4 percent of energy generated in 2023, up from 11.9 percent in 2022.
China was by far the leader, having created 60 percent and 51 percent of new sources of wind and solar respectively.
Although a new milestone has been reached for the renewable energy sector, the figures apparently fell short of expectations.
Hydro power fell to a five-year low, dropping its share of global energy to just 14.3 percent and offsetting some of the gains made by wind and solar.
