The shift could result in surplus oil and gas supplies, potentially driving more investments into green energy. A high level of uncertainty due to ongoing conflicts in the oil and gas-producing regions of the Middle East and Russia still remains, as well as upcoming elections in countries that account for half of global energy demand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Renewables are making strides:<\/strong> The agency reported a record high level of clean energy coming online globally last year, with over 560 GW of renewable power capacity added. Around USD 2 tn is expected to be invested in clean energy in 2024, nearly double the amount invested in fossil fuels. The IEA's scenario based on current government policies predicts that global oil demand will peak before 2030 at just under 102 mn barrels per day (mb\/d) and then decline to 2023 levels of 99 mb\/d by 2035, driven largely by increased EV use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">^^ We will have a deeper dive into the report next week in the news well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The story <\/strong><strong>was picked up widely in the international press:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/age-electricity-follow-looming-fossil-fuel-peak-iea-says-2024-10-16\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Reuters<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/global-clean-energy-transition-df50c39865f3d24cf78ac9d58f0ad07c\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">AP<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/newsletters\/2024-10-16\/end-of-the-oil-age-beckons-for-international-energy-agency\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Bloomberg<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/16\/climate\/global-demand-electricity-rising.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The New York Times<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/de175bfd-aaf1-4adc-b4b5-3e9973aed522\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Financial Times<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/clean-energy-to-outpace-global-demand-growth-iea-says-02b504c2\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Wall Street Journal<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/national\/2024\/10\/16\/global-clean-energy-transition\/5142313c-8b73-11ef-84b5-dacd642f5899_story.html?isMobile=1\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Washington Post<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2024\/oct\/16\/fossil-fuels-could-become-cheaper-and-more-abundant-says-iea\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Guardian<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/china-ap-international-energy-agency-india-scientists-b2629957.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Independent<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2024\/10\/16\/iea-report-age-of-electricity\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Axios<\/a> <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<hr style=\"height:2px;border-width:0;color:gray;background-color:gray\">\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">WATCH THIS SPACE-<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong><a id=\"wwtt1\"><\/a> #1- Saudi and Egyptian private sector players have pledged to make investments worth<\/strong><strong> USD 15 bn in Egypt<\/strong> across renewable energy, industry, real estate, tourism, and technology sectors, Saudi-Egyptian Business Council head Bandar Al Amri told <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.alarabiya.net\/aswaq\/exclusive\/2024\/10\/16\/%D8%A7%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D9%82%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D9%84%D8%B6%D8%AE-%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AB%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%B3%D8%B9%D9%88%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%81%D9%8A-%D9%85%D8%B5%D8%B1-%D8%A8%D9%82%D9%8A%D9%85%D8%A9-15-%D9%85%D9%84%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%B1\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Al Arabiya Business<\/a>, without naming any of the potential investors.
