What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

The International Energy Agency expects total global energy investment to increase 5 percent to $3.4 trillion in 2026. Around $2.2 trillion of this investment is projected to flow into clean energy infrastructure, including renewables and grids. Separately, reports noted that while over 30 governments have enacted policies to improve energy efficiency or move away from fossil fuels, global emissions slightly increased and clean energy investments fell compared to the previous year.
