I-International Energy Agency (IEA) isanda kukhipha umbiko nge-30th enesihloko esithi “Isu Lokuguqula Amandla Ahlanzekile Elingabizi Futhi Elifanele,” igcizelela ukuthi ukusheshisa ukushintshela kumandla ahlanzekile kungaholela ezindlekweni zamandla ezishibhile futhi kunciphise izindleko zokuphila kwabathengi. Lo mbiko uqokomisa ukuthi ubuchwepheshe bamandla ahlanzekile buvame ukudlula ubuchwepheshe bendabuko obusekelwe kuphethiloli ngokuya ngokuncintisana kwezindleko phakathi kwemijikelezo yabo yokuphila. Ngokukhethekile, amandla elanga nawomoya avele njengemithombo yamandla emisha engabizi kakhulu etholakalayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngenkathi izindleko zokuqala zezimoto zikagesi (kufaka phakathi amamodeli anamasondo amabili namasondo amathathu) zingaba phezulu, ngokuvamile zinikeza ukonga ngezindleko zokusebenza eziphansi.
Umbiko we-IEA ugcizelela izinzuzo zabathengi zokwandisa isabelo semithombo yamandla avuselelekayo njengelanga nomoya. Njengamanje, cishe ingxenye yezindleko zamandla zabathengi iya emikhiqizweni kaphethiloli, kanti enye ingxenye yesithathu inikezelwe kugesi. Njengoba izimoto zikagesi, amaphampu okushisa, kanye nezinjini zikagesi zikhula kakhulu kwezokuthuthwa, ukwakhiwa, kanye nezimboni, ugesi kulindeleke ukuthi udlule imikhiqizo kaphethiloli njengomthombo wamandla oyinhloko ekusetshenzisweni kwamandla okusetshenziswa kokugcina.
Lo mbiko uphinde uveze izinqubomgomo eziphumelelayo ezivela emazweni ahlukahlukene, uphakamisa izinyathelo eziningana zokusheshisa ukwamukelwa kobuchwepheshe bamandla ahlanzekile. Lezi zinyathelo zifaka phakathi ukusebenzisa izinhlelo zokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kwamandla emindenini ehola kancane, ukuhlinzeka ngezimali zomkhakha kahulumeni ukuze kutholakale izixazululo zokushisa nokupholisa ezisebenza kahle, ukukhuthaza izinto zikagesi ezonga amandla, kanye nokuqinisekisa izinketho zokuhamba ezihlanzekile ezingabizi. Ukusekelwa okuthuthukisiwe kwezokuthutha zomphakathi kanye nemakethe yezimoto zikagesi ezisetshenzisiwe nakho kuyanconywa.
UFatih Birol, uMqondisi Omkhulu we-IEA, ugcizelele ukuthi idatha ikhombisa ngokusobala ukuthi ukusheshisa ukuguquka kwamandla ahlanzekile kuyindlela engabizi kakhulu kohulumeni, amabhizinisi, kanye nemindeni. Ngokusho kukaBirol, ukwenza amandla athengeke kalula kubantu abaningi kuncike esilinganisweni salolu shintsho. Uphikisana ngokuthi ukusheshisa ukushintshela kumandla ahlanzekile, kunokuba kukuhlehlise, kuyisihluthulelo sokunciphisa izindleko zamandla nokwenza amandla atholakale kalula kuwo wonke umuntu.
Ngamafuphi, umbiko we-IEA ukhuthaza ukushintshela okusheshayo emandleni avuselelekayo njengendlela yokufeza ukonga izindleko nokunciphisa umthwalo wezomnotho kubathengi. Ngokusebenzisa izinqubomgomo zomhlaba wonke ezisebenzayo, umbiko unikeza umhlahlandlela wokusheshisa ukwamukelwa kwamandla ahlanzekile. Kugxilwe ezinyathelweni ezisebenzayo njengokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kwamandla, ukusekela ezokuthutha ezihlanzekile, kanye nokutshala imali engqalasizinda yamandla avuselelekayo. Le ndlela ayithembisi nje ukwenza amandla ashibhile kodwa futhi nokukhuthaza ikusasa lamandla elizinzile nelilinganayo.
