Equinor sees 1.5C warming goal “highly unlikely” in Energy Perspectives 2026 outlook

• Equinor published its Energy Perspectives 2026 outlook, projecting diverging global energy pathways through 2050 amid geopolitical tension and market uncertainty.
• The report expects the energy transition to continue at a slower pace as policy prioritizes energy security and affordability over rapid decarbonization.
• It flags the 1.5°C global warming goal as highly unlikely under current conditions and near-term developments.
• Four scenarios frame the analysis: a moderate, constrained transition; a higher-growth path with slower emissions cuts; a fragmented, low-cooperation world; a faster-cut pathway still short of 1.5°C.
