Clean energy Investment Trends 2020
…renewable energy sector remains strong amid the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. In the second quarter of 2020, over 12 GW of utility-scale renewable projects were sanctioned at the peak of a nationwide lockdown. Financial performance expectations are crucial. Even as the economic downturn has curbed investment around the world, the relatively resilient return picture around renewable power assets and equity securities is creating new opportunities for investors to allocate capital towards the sector. Still, a number of risks and barriers to realising the higher levels of investment needed to align with a sustainable pathway remain.

A Vision for Clean Cooking Access for All
World Energy Outlook Special Report Nearly one in three people, the vast majority of them in the poorest regions of the world, still lack access to clean cooking facilities, with major ramifications for public health, local environments and socio-economic development. Inhaling hazardous smoke from traditional stoves and open fires causes millions of premature deaths annually, disproportionately affecting women and children. The arduous task of collecting firewood also hinders educational and employment opportunities and strains natural resources – compounding costs for vulnerable populations.The International Energy Agency (IEA) and the African Development Bank Group have joined forces to address this critical…
