Cleantech or energy transition investments reached a record high of over two trillion U.S. dollars in 2025, driven by electric vehicles and renewables. This growth witnessed clean energy’s share of total energy sector investment surpassing fossil fuel spending. The shift away from these polluting energy sources to clean technologies like solar, wind, batteries, and heat pumps will be crucial for mitigating climate change. But with GHG emissions still rising, can global investment keep up the momentum to ensure a sustainable future?
