What the source says

This implies that global renewable capacity additions will continue to increase every year, reaching almost 940 GW annually by 2030 – 70% more than the record level achieved last year.

Checked: the figure 940 billion wattsis stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
