Corporate demand for renewables, and the urgency of fighting climate change, fueled a decade of meteoric growth in clean energy. But the facilitator of that surge — cheap capital — has all but disappeared. Inflation, high interest rates, and insufficient tax equity now call into question whether the growth trajectory can continue. Episode 64 of the Factor This! podcast features Thomas Byrne, CEO of CleanCapital, a clean energy financier, developer, and asset owner. Byrne shares how CleanCapital is navigating a "new normal" in clean energy capital markets, and breaks down the impact of macroeconomic headwinds on the speed of the energy transition.
