Sustainable Investments in the Energy Sector PDF, see below – Germany, once a poster child for renewable energy policy, performs particularly poorly in wind power investments due to complex permitting procedures that often deter investors.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Global investment in renewable energy has nearly doubled over the past decade. During this time, Europe lost its position as the top investor in renewable energies and was overtaken by China and the United States. According to a publication<\/a> by Bloomberg New Energy Finance, the United Nations and the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, investments in China<\/a> almost tripled between 2009 and 2019. The data include R&D spending by companies and governments, investment in venture capital, private equity and public markets, and money spent on renewable energy assets and other such assets, with the latter accounting for the largest share of investment worldwide.<\/p>\n

In Europe, media reports indicate that investment in wind energy in particular has declined. Energy expert Professor Dr. Ulf Moslener of the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management links this to the fact that investors do not really believe in the long-term attractiveness of alternative energy generation given the current market structure and organization. Germany, once a poster child for renewable energy policy, performs particularly poorly in these wind power investments due to complex permitting procedures that often deter investors.<\/p>\n
