Clean energy industries must raise trillions of dollars in the decades ahead for the world to achieve the goals set forth in the Paris Agreement. What is the track record to date in raising capital for clean energy? What can be done to facilitate financing for clean energy industries in the United States and around the world? As world leaders convene in New York City for the UN Climate Summit, the Center on Global Energy Policy will host Ethan Zindler, Head of Americas at BloombergNEF; Sumant Sinha, Chairman and Managing Director of ReNew Power; and Sarah Davidson, Vice President, External Affairs, NY Green Bank on a panel moderated by David Sandalow, CGEP Inaugural Fellow and Co-Director, Energy and Environment, to explore financing challenges and opportunities in meeting the world’s climate goals. — Guests unable to attend in person can register to view a livestream of the event.

President Donald Trump has made energy a clear focus for his second term in the White House. Having campaigned on an “America First” platform that highlighted domestic fossil-fuel growth, the reversal of climate policies and clean energy incentives advanced by the Biden administration, and substantial tariffs on key US trading partners, he declared an “energy emergency” on his first day in office.
While he hasn’t released an official plan, Trump’s playbook the last time he was in office and his frequent complaints about clean energy offer clues to what’s ahead.
