The EBITDA of decarbonization
Climate change, and the energy transition that is being driven by it, is both the greatest challenge and the greatest opportunity of our lifetime. When you consider how the implementation of the energy transition will actually take place, what is required is nothing short of the decarbonization of the global economy. The incredible scale and breadth of this decarbonization offers companies and investors an unprecedented opportunity to drive a sustainable transformation of their business that will both lower costs and improve returns on investment, directly benefitting their bottom line.
