Konsulenthuset BCG konkluderer i en ny artikel, at den grønne teknologi, der er nødvendig for den grønne omstilling, vil koste verdensøkonomien $3.500 mia. om året frem til 2050. BCG foreslår, at det frie marked skal drive den grønne omstilling, men at dette vil kræve incitamenter i form af blandt andet bedre finansieringsmuligheder.
BCG, skriver: ”Public and philanthropic funding combined with market-shaping mechanisms are key to avoiding the worst impacts of climate change.”
Uddrag fra artiklen:
- To achieve global net-zero targets, we need to spend $3.5 trillion every year on technologies that accelerate decarbonization. Market shaping can get us there.
- Market-shaping mechanisms, such as advance market commitments, offtake agreements, volume guarantees, and concessional capital, can be used to legitimize markets and attract the private capital needed to support large-scale commercialization of climate technologies.
- Emerging climate technologies often require significant amounts of capital with uncertain returns. Market-shaping mechanisms—such as innovative financing, climate-friendly legislation, and industry coalitions—reduce the investment risk.
- All companies, regardless of size or climate maturity, can play a role in creating a market for emerging climate technologies.
