A Goldman Sachs report indicates that if the Middle East conflict continues, high-income nations will leverage their purchasing power to secure energy, leaving low-income countries like Bangladesh and Pakistan at risk of supply disruptions and manufacturing shutdowns. High import costs are driving a global shift toward localized energy, leading to a structurally bullish outlook for solar power. Meanwhile, some nations in South and Southeast Asia, lacking the capability to rapidly deploy renewable energy, are reverting to coal, which is expected to receive sustained demand support over the coming years

- The ongoing Middle East conflict is reshaping the global energy landscape, favoring solar energy and coal as major beneficiaries.  
- High-income countries are leveraging their purchasing power to secure energy resources, while low-income nations like Bangladesh and Pakistan risk energy shortages due to rising import costs and competition.  
- The transition to localized energy sources is accelerating, with increased adoption of solar energy expected in the long term, but many South and Southeast Asian countries are reverting to coal amid difficulties in deploying renewable sources, sustaining global coal demand.
