Clean energy investments surge to a record $3.3 trillion in 2025, led by solar and battery storage.

Global energy investment is forecast to hit a record $3.3 trillion in 2025, driven by a surge in clean energy spending, including renewables, nuclear, and energy storage. Clean energy investments are expected to double those in fossil fuels, with solar power leading at $450 billion and battery storage investments rising to $66 billion. However, investment in power grids lags behind, posing risks to electricity security. China dominates clean energy investment, accounting for nearly a third of the total, while investment in oil and gas is set to decline.
