Wind and solar produced 531 TWh in April 2026 versus 477 TWh from gas, per Ember data cited in Electrek reporting. Ember's Global Electricity Review documented wind and solar meeting all 2025 demand growth, with April 2026 regional gains of 14% in China and 13% in the EU aligning with IEA 2024-2026 deployment trends that showed no widespread coal reversion. Policy accelerations including Indonesia's 100 GW solar-storage target and South Korea's 100 GW renewables goal by 2030, tracked by the Global Renewables Alliance, coincide with 2021-2026 doubling of wind-solar output while gas held flat at ~476-477 TWh. April's milestone reflects sustained cost and security advantages rather than crisis response, as primary source analysis indicates limited substitution effects across reporting markets.
