Another year or three and renewables will meet 100% of additional power demand. And then they will keep going from there. The trope that new energy technologies are only ever additive will take some time to die, but die it will - as all pseudo-scientific cargo cults eventually do.
The vast majority of global electricity demand growth in 2024 – over 80% – was covered by low-emissions sources

This was supported by a huge expansion in renewable power capacity of about 700 GW, setting a new annual record for the 22nd year in a row ➡️ iea.li/4c0jI8t
