S&P Global executives warn that the energy transition will be more difficult, costly, and complicated than anticipated, according to their new article in Foreign Affairs. Daniel Yergin, Peter Orszag, and Atul Arya argue that the transition won't unfold linearly but will vary across regions at different rates with different fuel mixes.
The authors highlight that despite record renewable energy production in 2024, oil and coal also reached all-time highs. What's occurring is more "energy addition" than transition, with renewables supplementing rather than replacing conventional sources. The share of hydrocarbons in global energy has only decreased from 85% to 80% since 1990.
Key challenges include:
- The massive cost (estimated at 5% of global GDP annually through 2050)
- Energy security concerns heightened by Russia's Ukraine invasion
- A North-South divide on balancing climate with development priorities
- Mining and mineral constraints (new mines take 20+ years to develop)
- US-China rivalry complicating green supply chains
- Surging electricity demand from EVs, reshoring, and data centers

The total value of M&A transactions in Q4 2024 reached $613.33 billion, marking a 13.6% year-over-year decline and a 15.5% quarter-over-quarter decrease, primarily due to lower US activity.

Global supply chains are operating at full capacity as of January 2025, with the GEP Global Supply Chain Volatility Index posting -0.21. U.S. manufacturing showed significant growth, while Asia's manufacturing expansion was led by South Korea, China, and India. However, Europe remains in an industrial recession.
Key findings include increased procurement activity in North America (driven by U.S. manufacturers), while Mexican and Canadian factories reduced purchasing. Material shortages are at a five-year low, though labor shortages are causing backlogs. Transportation costs reached a six-month high in January.
Regional indices show: North America at -0.22 (six-month high), Europe declining to -0.61, UK falling to -0.63 (13-month low), and Asia rising to 0.03. Despite potential tariffs, global manufacturers are not stockpiling inventories, instead taking a wait-and-see approach while accelerating China-plus-one investments.
