More green energy is needed to replace fossil fuels as a source of energy globally. Wind and solar power projects, for example, benefit from increased demand. In a robust economy, demand for electricity surges, which raises the cost. With the correct incentives, green energy can be profitable, but only if the right incentives are in place and the proper pricing, technology, money, and operations are balanced. Profits increased by a factor of two in the same period. Over a decade, renewable energy generated returns of 192.3 percent compared to 97.2 percent for fossil fuels. In the last five years, renewable energy investments have continued to outperform fossil fuel investments in terms of returns and volatility.
