That article also concludes that they have significantly improved with the most recent forecasts though. Edit: Here in the UK, we have been having the public enquiry into the UK's handling of the Covid pandemic. One thing that has come up frequently is that the scientists think about things from a scientific PoV, politicians from politics, economists from economics, etc, etc, but that what was lacking was a more coherent decision making body that was sufficiently skilled to look at all these as a whole. A bit like "clinical medicine" != "public health". It may well be that the IEA look at the subject from an energy resources PoV, but miss the political pressures that governments feel from climate-supporting electorates. And why shouldn't they, it's not their speciality. As pointed out in the article, their reports are one (albeit important) input into the larger solar energy policy decision making process.
