• Renewable energy investment Europe 2004-2018

Premium

Renewable energy technologies generate energy from resources generally replenishable in a human time scale and thus, foster the transition towards decentralization of energy production and decarbonization. Investment, be it in the form of asset finance of utility-scale projects from internal company balance sheets, loans, equity capital, or financing of small-scale projects, is crucial for the development of new capacities and expansion of the sector.

The value of renewable energy investment in Europe was at its highest in 2011 at 130 billion U.S. dollars. Since then, it has fluctuated and in 2018, it totaled approximately 62.2 billion U.S. dollars.
