We've reached another climate tipping point on energy investment: Green power is in
That's not all the low-carbon transition investments that BNEF tracked, either, but it separates those out into less direct investment sectors: Power grids, supply chains and manufacturing and climate-tech corporate finance. When those are lumped in, the total low-carbon energy investment rises to $1.6 trillion, BNEF found.
BNEF said $274 billion was invested in power grid improvements last year, while supply chain and manufacturing investment rose to $79 billion, again dominated by China. As for climate-tech corporate finance, which BNEF defines as"new equity financing raised by companies in the climate-tech space," that declined by 29 percent last year, largely due to market instability.
BNEF estimates in its latest report that low-carbon investments need to immediately triple to meet 2050 net-zero CO2 goals."the world must invest an annual average of $4.55 trillion for the remainder of this decade in order to get on track under BNEF's Net Zero Scenario," the firm said., the international governing body said the world needed to be working seven times harder to meet climate change goals to keep global warming below the 1.
The International Energy Agency has also said the world isn't moving fast enough to stave off climate catastrophe, and believes the only path to net-zero carbon involvesBNEF's numbers don't show the explosive nuclear growth the IEA hoped, and it too predicts a lot more cash - $500 billion, to be precise - would be necessary to meet 2050 targets without more nuclear investments.
