Based on the current policy environment, the global market for clean energy technologies is set to rise from $700-billion in 2023 to more than $2-trillion by 2035, close to the value of the current global crude oil market, a new International Energy Association (IEA) report shows. The latest edition of the IEA’s ‘Energy Technology Perspectives 2024’ (ETP-2024) report, which was published on October 30, states that trade in clean technologies is also expected to rise sharply. Within a decade from now, it will more than triple to reach $570-billion, more than 50% larger than current natural gas global trade figures.
