Let’s face it. Despite world leaders putting on a brave face at the latest round of international climate negotiations – the 28th Conference of Parties (COP28) – the headline result fell dangerously short of what is required. It speaks volumes that this was the first COP to acknowledge that decarbonisation would require a transition away from fossil fuels.

The question for investors, and indeed society, is whether another failed COP matters.

Clean tech accelerates

Our answer is: yes, it matters. The energy transition will be easier and faster with concerted governmental support. But we mustn’t allow the gloom of policy paralysis to blind us to the accelerating clean tech revolution.

In the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) June 2023 Renewable Energy Market Update, the evidence of transition is clear.1 Global additions of renewable power capacity are expected to jump by a third in 2023, the largest absolute increase ever, to more than 440 gigawatts. Solar is the stand-out performer, with manufacturing capacity on track to meet the level of demand envisaged in the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario.

Rather than slowing down the transition, the Ukraine-Russia conflict has led to acceleration. The forecast for renewable capacity additions in Europe has been revised upwards by 40%.

Cheaper than fossil fuels

Critically, far from imposing costs on consumers, the IEA estimates that wholesale electricity prices in Europe would have been 8% higher in 2022 without the additional renewable capacity.[1] Clean energy will continue to take market share for the simple reasons that it is already – or rapidly becoming – cheaper, more accessible and less vulnerable to geopolitical ructions than fossil fuels.

The attractions of clean energy over fossil fuels is clear from the massive shift in financing, as shown in chart 2.[2]  For every $1 spent on fossil fuels today, $1.7 is spent on clean energy. Five years ago, this ratio was 1:1. In the electricity market alone, low-emissions power is expected to account for almost 90% of total investment in generation for 2023.

Can the market keep us within 1.5°C?

The market forces behind clean tech are powerful, but are they enough to keep temperature increases to a 1.5°C limit? While we can’t know for sure, the IEA’s scenario analysis points to a shortfall. The Stated Policies scenario (STEPS) shows where the IEA expects us to be by 2030 given current policies. Even under the Announced Pledges Scenario (APS), which includes commitments for new policies, we are falling short of what is needed in a 1.5°C scenario targeting net zero emissions by 2030.

While the economics are powerful, the mountain we have to climb to get to net zero is gargantuan. We need everyone, including governments, pulling in the same direction. Above all, governments need to stop obstructing progress. By continuing to subsidise harmful fossil fuel consumption, failing to reform permitting rules for energy and underinvestment in infrastructure for a new age of green technologies, governments add to the obstacles to transition.

So, the COP process does matter and is failing to deliver. However, if we look more closely there is a perceptible silver lining from the latest negotiations. Given the meeting was hosted by a petrostate, it is arguably remarkable that any progress was made. The COP28 President, Sultan Al Jaber (also chair of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company), stood firm behind the need to “keep the 1.5°C North Star alive”.

More steps forward than back

The IEA estimates that the new commitments on methane leakage in oil and gas production, increasing renewables, carbon capture and storage, as well as energy efficiency, will deliver 30% of what is needed for a 1.5°C outcome. While not a major leap forward, it was not a reversal either.

Change rarely happens in a linear fashion. The clean tech revolution, which is already demonstrating its ability to surprise repeatedly on the upside, is no different.

Those with vested interests in the fossil fuel economy will inevitably resist. But in this transition, it is increasingly clear that the most powerful force for change – the market – is moving behind a sustainable planet. This is not just a human imperative; it is also increasingly an economic reality that our clients can benefit from.
