How Bullish Is Private Capital on Clean Energy?
It would be nice to make sense of the current trend in private investment in renewable energy. This article in TechCrunch, speaking on venture capital in particular, suggests that it’s quite robust:
“The Energy and Utilities industry raised $635 million for 33 deals, an increase from the same period last year when 23 deals raised $381 million. Renewable Energy companies claimed almost all of the industry’s investment as 30 deals raised $621 million.”
Yet other data seem to point in the opposite direction. Can anyone help sort this out?
