How can IEC standards help renewables adapt to climate change?

As global temperatures continue to rise, the move to renewable energies is becoming a prerequisite. Despite being contested in certain areas of the world, they remain one of the main ways of fighting climate change by helping to meet net-zero emissions targets. By the end of 2023, renewables accounted for 43% of global installed power capacity and,
