The Final Word For Now

Newish meta-analysis / review paper: On the History and Future of 100% Renewable Energy Systems Research (Breyer et al. 2022). Read the whole thing if interested or just the last paragraph:

The main conclusion of the vast majority of 100% renewable energy systems studies is that such systems can power all energy in all regions of the world at low cost. As such, we do not need to rely on fossil fuels in the future. In the early 2020s, the consensus has increasingly become that solar PV and wind power will dominate the future energy system and new research increasingly shows that 100% renewable energy systems are not only feasible but also cost effective. This gives us the key to a sustainable civilization and the long-lasting prosperity of humankind.
