According to a new International Energy Agency report, global investment in clean energy this year will reach an impressive $2.15 trillion, nearly double the $1.15 trillion expected for fossil fuels. The report highlights a significant upward trend in clean energy investment, contrasting with the more stable but declining investment in fossil fuels. Analysts suggest that to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, investments need to average $4.5 trillion annually, a target that, given the current trajectory of clean energy growth, seems increasingly achievable despite a potential future tapering off of this momentum.
The energy transition doesn't show signs of slowing, with clean energy investments expected to reach $2.15 trillion in 2025, nearly twice that of fossil fuels.
Fossil fuel investment has been steady but shows signs of softening, while clean energy investment trends upward, suggesting an optimistic future for renewables.
To hit net zero by 2050, annual investments must average $4.5 trillion; however, current clean energy growth suggests this goal may be within reach.
While trends indicate growth in clean energy, this growth is expected to taper off soon, similar to patterns seen in the mid-2010s.
