Clean electricity accounted for 40% of new energy demand in 2025, with renewables driving almost all growth in electricity generation while fossil fuel use contracted. However, emissions are plateauing rather than falling due to rising overall energy demand and bottlenecks like grid connection delays and slow investment in clean industrial projects.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Clean power growth no longer means emissions cuts. You face grid connection delays and weak industrial buyer commitments that stall carbon reduction despite booming renewables.
