A Critical Analysis of the Impact of the Pandemic on Sustainable Energy Scenarios

The energy sector is undergoing a major transformation in the composition of its energy matrix and the new trends detected in different scenarios have been published by institutions and/ or organizations in the sector. This document contributes to the search for solutions to the serious problems of environmental pollution and humanity's economic inequality. To achieve this, it examines the reports of energy sources, and carbon dioxide emissions and performs a regression analysis up to the year 2100. The results indicate that a 25% increase in renewable energy is required, compared to renewable energy. that was required before the pandemic, to limit the increase in the temperature of the earth's surface to 1.5 degrees C average, concerning the pre-industrial period. Unfortunately, the planet's energy matrix shows no signs of becoming sustainable and climate change and economic inequality continue to affect humanity.
