This month we celebrate Earth Day, and at Ceres, we’re working hard to accelerate the transition to a cleaner, more just, and resilient economy.

And we are seeing some real progress lately when it comes to clean energy!

The evidence is piling up—clean energy investing and responsible business innovation will likely continue this year to fuel economic and job growth and bolster competitiveness in the U.S. and beyond.

A steady drumbeat of data released over the past few weeks underscores the scale of this trend.

Global investment in clean energy rose to $2.1 trillion in 2024—the highest level ever. This funding increase is backing breakthroughs and deployments in transportation, power generation, and smart grid technologies.

Clean energy is expected to account for 93% of U.S. power plant construction in 2025. This rapid expansion of the most affordable and fastest-to-deploy energy sources, like solar and battery storage, benefits companies and consumers, reinforcing America’s economic strength and global leadership.

Businesses aren’t just responding to demand—they’re betting on it. A recent survey found that 92% of CFOs plan to invest more in sustainability this year due to the clear business case—and more than half say they plan to spend significantly more.

And there’s more good news! Check out my latest article in Forbes < [link removed] > and read more about the building business and bipartisan support for clean energy in the U.S.
