Innovation in energy technologies is surging globally, with significant VC funding growth from 2015 to 2022, although a decline of over 20% is expected in 2023-2024 due to inflation and policy uncertainties. Saudi Arabia is advancing its energy diversification through nuclear power and carbon capture initiatives, while the IEA emphasizes the need for sustained investment in emerging technologies to enhance energy security and sustainability.
Innovation in energy technologies is thriving globally, with significant advancements in low-emissions solutions and a surge in venture capital funding for startups, reaching $230 billion since 2015. However, funding declined over 20% in 2023 due to inflation and political uncertainties. Key projects, particularly in carbon capture and nuclear energy, are underway, with a focus on overcoming delays and ensuring long-term sustainability.
Global energy demand surged by 2.2% in 2024, driven by rising electricity consumption, particularly in emerging economies. Renewables led the growth, accounting for 38% of the energy supply increase, while oil demand growth slowed to 0.8%, marking a historic drop in its share of total energy demand below 30%. Despite a rise in CO2 emissions, the adoption of clean technologies has significantly mitigated potential increases.
The US has become the fifth-largest supplier of liquefied natural gas and crude oil to India between 2017 and 2024. Experts express concern over the potential impact of increased US protectionism on global supply chains and green technology access, emphasizing the need for international cooperation in climate action. The resilience of the Paris Agreement is highlighted, despite setbacks from political changes in the US, with calls for continued commitment to addressing climate change.
Mission 2025 urges governments to adopt investment-positive policies to mobilize $1 trillion annually for clean energy, highlighting successful strategies from industrialized nations. Despite record renewable capacity growth, the UN warns of a two-speed transition, with developing countries facing high capital costs and debt crises, risking global climate goals. The IEA emphasizes the need for stable policies and international support to ensure equitable investment in clean energy across all economies.
