By financing initiatives like renewable energy, sustainable\u00a0 transportation and green buildings, the financial sector can expedite the transition to a low-carbon economy and make a\u00a0 significant impact in the fight against climate change.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To achieve sustainable development goals, including limiting the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, it is imperative\u00a0 to mobilise sufficient resources. According to the UN, this requires an increase of $5 trillion in global gross investment by 2030.\u00a0 <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(UN Financing Climate Action)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rising concern about climate change has spurred many investors to seek sustainable financing instruments, including green\u00a0 bonds, green loans and sustainability-linked loans. Such financial tools aim to fund projects that promote directly or indirectly\u00a0 sustainable development and minimise the impact of human activity on the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The popularity of these sustainable financing instruments has grown significantly in recent years as investors seek to align their\u00a0 portfolios with their values. Global sustainable bond issues could reach EUR 880bn in 2023, an increase of 30% over 2022\u00a0 <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(CACIB ESG Fixed Income Research &#8211; Bloomberg)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, of which 59% could be dedicated to green bonds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The acceleration of green bond issues is occurring within the context of an expanding investor base and, as a result, it benefits\u00a0 from increased liquidity. This trend has been particularly evident in the post-Covid era, where sustained decreases in spreads,\u00a0 rather than occasional fluctuations, have been observed. Consequently, it seems that green and sustainable bond issues\u00a0 are outperforming conventional bonds and facing less selling pressure. By blending profitability goals with environmental\u00a0 considerations, green bonds have become a highly advantageous option for companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Option-adjusted spread between green bonds and conventional bonds denominated in euros, in basis points<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45499 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-5.png 512w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-5-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-5-18x8.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For decades, changes in gross domestic product have correlated strongly with the consumption of energy and other natural resources. However, the latest projections (from the 2022 STEPS report) indicate that significant changes are on the horizon, with fossil fuel use predicted to decrease to less than 75% of total energy supply by 2030 and to just over 60% by 2050. As a result, some economies that have traditionally relied on hydrocarbons, such as those in the GCC region, are now exploring the use of renewable energy resources to diversify their energy mix. The success of early adopters in the GCC region, dating back to the early 2000s, has shown the economic feasibility of renewable energy, and recent photovoltaic (PV) projects in the area have demonstrated some of the world\u2019s lowest levelised cost of electricity (LCOE), such as the 600 MW Shuaibah solar project, which announced an electricity cost of only 1.04 cents per kilowatt-hour.<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, renewable energy is proving to be more profitable than oil. But some hydrocarbon-reliant economies still have substantial oil reserves, and we may naturally wonder if that will affect their motivation to accelerate the transition towards renewable energy sources. Will they prioritise the long-term benefits of renewable energy, or will their continued dependence on oil pose challenges to their efforts for sustainability?<\/p>\n<p>Development of the share of fossil fuels in the total energy supply<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45500 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"642\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54.png 1600w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54-1024x411.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54-768x308.png 768w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54-1536x616.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.01.54-18x7.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the cost of renewable energy continues to fall year after year, and the cost of fossil fuel continues to rise, the energy market is\u00a0 facing an unprecedented shift in demand in favour of sustainable energy. In Europe, between January and May 2022, solar PV\u00a0 and wind generation alone likely avoided the import of fossil fuels in the order of USD 50 billion \u2013 predominantly of natural gas. But\u00a0 the extent of the fossil fuel price crisis, which started in 2022, has overshadowed the fact that without renewables the situation\u00a0 for consumers, economies and the environment would be much worse.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role of the financial sector in addressing the issue of climate change cannot be overstated. By investing in mitigation finance,\u00a0 economic benefits can be realised, such as reducing the cost of climate change in the long term, improving energy security and\u00a0 creating new economic opportunities. Mitigation finance is critical in achieving the long-term goal of limiting global warming to\u00a0 a maximum of 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. However, the equally important adaptation finance must not be\u00a0 ignored. Adaptation finance focuses on addressing the effects of climate change that are inevitable, or indeed, already here,\u00a0 such as rising sea levels and more frequent and severe weather events. The challenge of mitigation and adaptation finance is\u00a0 particularly pronounced in southern countries, which are especially vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. The\u00a0 financial sector must confront these dual challenges head-on to ensure a sustainable future for all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To achieve this goal, the sector must overcome the obstacles that make it difficult to access sustainable finance. Incorporating\u00a0 sustainability into investment decision-making is complicated by a lack of clear and consistent standards that are urgently\u00a0 needed to ensure financing options are aligned with the principles of sustainability, allowing investors and borrowers to support\u00a0 sustainable projects while earning a return on investment or offsetting costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45501 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1626\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17.png 1626w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17-1024x428.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17-768x321.png 768w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17-1536x642.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.accuracy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Capture-decran-2024-07-18-a-13.02.17-18x8.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1626px) 100vw, 1626px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>David Chollet &#8211; Partner &#8211; Accuracy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mehdy Abdelhafidh &#8211; Analyst &#8211; Accuracy<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can the financial sector contribute to the decarbonisation of the global economy?
