As the need for a clean energy investment surge is greater than ever today, the research opens a dialogue about the latest overarching FDIs trends: while transition to solar and wind energy eclipses consumption of fossil fuels and new global players emerge in the global scene, innovative technologies, such as batteries and green hydrogen, are catalysing further change. 

The panel discussion dissected the report’s key findings, highlighting the US and Europe’s consistently strong performance, whilst pinpointing regions and countries of greatest investment potential. How have European nations established themselves as global top players for renewable energy? To what extent do robust regulatory frameworks pave the way for progress in countries such as Chile and Australia? What strategies and regulatory frameworks should be adopted to reduce the roadblocks that stand in the way of exploring untapped renewable resources? Do our experts forecast further developments in the renewables market, in a world that needs to enhance energy security while limiting global warming to 1.5 °C?
