(Oil & Gas 360) – The International Energy Administration (IEA) is forecasting 70% growth in global renewable capacity additions by the end of the decade. The projected momentum follows a record year for capacity growth in 2023. Solar and wind are expected to generate 95% of that capacity growth due to their growing economic attractiveness, according to the agency. The report
(Oil & Gas 360) – The International Energy Administration (IEA) released its Government Energy Spending Tracker late last month detailing the nearly $3 trillion in global investment in decarbonization efforts. The United States accounts for roughly one-sixth of that number with nearly $ 600 billion allocated across six categories (outlined below). The figure equates to an approximate federal spend on
(Oil Price) – Despite the surge in renewable energy additions, the world is not yet on track to reach the goal of tripling renewables capacity by 2030, according to the Renewables 2024 report published by the International Energy Agency (IEA) on Wednesday. Global renewable capacity is expected to grow by 2.7 times by 2030, surpassing countries’ current ambitions by nearly 25%. But it
(World Oil) – OPEC+ made no changes to plans to start gradually reviving oil production towards the end of the year, despite signs of an impending surplus. A statement from 23-nation the group after an online monitoring meeting on Wednesday didn’t announce any alterations. Led by Saudi Arabia and Russia, OPEC+ plans a series of monthly increases beginning with a 180,000
(Oil & Gas 360) – While oil demand continues to grow globally, its trajectory has been leveling somewhat, according to the International Energy Administration (IEA) in its World Oil Market Report released in September. It says the 800,000 barrels a day (bbl/d) increase for the first half of 2024 is the slowest growth rate since the Covid year of 2020;
(Oil Price) – This week, the International Energy Agency said that the COP28 targets for expanding wind and solar capacity were “within reach”. Yet there was a “but”. That had to do with the fast expansion and upgrade of grids and the equally fast buildout of energy storage capacity. That “but” can doom the whole transition—if it’s not already doomed.
Oil and Gas 360 IEA’s OUTLOOK: America To Remain Number One The International Energy Administration’s (IEA) July Oil Market Report projects U.S. producers to extend their lead in global oil and gas production through next year.

Oil Price Economic growth, higher demand for cooling amid heat waves, the rapid rise of data centers, and continued electrification are set to push the growth in global electricity demand to one of the highest paces in the past 20 years in 2024 and 2025, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Friday. Electricity demand is set for growth of about 4%
U.S. News LONDON – Brent crude oil has been trading in a tight range of $75-$90 a barrel since late 2022 as OPEC+ cuts keep a floor under prices while sizeable spare capacity, demand uncertainty and sanctions policy prevent the market breaking higher. After a series of gradual production increases that started in early 2021 which unwound historic cuts agreed
BOE Report Global oil demand growth will slow to just under a million barrels per day (bpd) this year and next, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said, as Chinese consumption contracted in the second quarter due to economic problems. Global demand in the second quarter rose by 710,000 bpd year on year in its lowest quarterly increase in over a
Oil Price The International Energy Agency (IEA) recently released its Oil 2024 report, which examines the global dynamics for oil supply security, refining, trade, and investment. The report received considerable media attention because of the projection that by 2030 oil production will reach “a staggering 8 million barrels per day above projected global demand.” The report cites the proliferation of electric vehicles,
Oil Price OPEC+ once again extended its oil production cuts this month. The decision was anything but unexpected and, unlike previous production policy announcements, it had the desired effect on prices. However, it could only work for so long. Soon, OPEC will need to make a decision. Last year, oil traders were almost exclusively focused on demand and threats thereof,
