Global energy investment stabilized in 2018, ending three consecutive years of decline, as capital spending on oil, gas and coal supply bounced back while investment stalled for energy efficiency and renewables, according to the International Energy Agency’s latest annual review. trillion in 2018, a level similar to 2017.

in 2018, the only annual increase in the past five years. The changes in US energy-related CO 2 emissions in 2019 offset the increase in 2018. CO 2 emissions from coal fell by 14.6%, the largest annual percentage drop in any fuel’s CO 2 emissions in EIA’s annual CO 2 data series dating back to 1973.

Electric vehicles charged in coal-heavy regions can create more human health and environmental damages from life cycle air emissions than gasoline vehicles, according to a new consequential life cycle analysis by researchers from Carnegie Mellon University. That’s why the shift away from coal is so important for EVs. Jeremy Michalek.

Let this sink in: In 2018, Big Oil spent less than 1% of its combined budget on green energy projects. Equinor has announced plans to invest $10B into clean energy by 2025, mostly through its offshore wind portfolio. Further, natural gas can be used to keep the power grid stable as solar and wind power fluctuate.
