A new report has revealed that the global energy transition is becoming more fragmented as geopolitical risks rise.
This is even as record investment fails to translate into stronger system readiness.
The Energy Transition Index 2026, published by the World Economic Forum in collaboration with Accenture, realeaded onThursday,June 18, found that electricity demand grew by 3 per cent in 2025, driven by electrification, cooling, digital infrastructure and artificial intelligence.
The report said global momentum has slowed as transition readiness declined for the first time in more than a decade despite $3.3 trillion in total energy investment, including $2.3 trillion in clean energy.
