What the source says

Should progress continue at the pace currently forecast, the share of renewables in final energy consumption would be roughly 18% by 2040 – significantly below the IEA Sustainable Development Scenario’s benchmark of 28%.

Checked: the figure 18%is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
