Energy investment is set to fall by one-fifth in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At the start of 2020, global energy investment was on track for growth of around 2%, which would have been the largest annual rise in spending in six years. Global investment in oil and gas is expected to fall by almost one-third in 2020.

This decrease was driven largely by a decrease in emissions from fossil fuel combustion resulting from a decrease in total energy use in 2019 compared to 2018 and a continued shift from coal to natural gas and renewables in the electric power sector. Preliminary outlook for 2020. CO 2 emissions decreased 2.2% from 2018 to 2019.
