Very positive article

The International Energy Agency significantly raised its five-year renewable growth forecast after 2015 new installations data positively surprised.
Nissan switches on solar farm to power UK car production (including LEAF)
The growing market for renewable energy sources is an important factor also for the electric car market, as it is the main way for plug-ins to achieve near true zero emission transportation.
Both strong policies to install new wind and solar energy projects, as well as sharp cost reductions, enabled renewables to overtake coal as largest source of installed power capacity in the world for 2015.
In 2015 some 153 GW of renewables (including 66 GW wind and 49 GW solar) were added – which was 15% more than in 2014.
Renewables are also to be the fastest-growing source of electricity generation over the next five years, increasing its market share from 23% in 2015 to 28% in 2021.
