We have big news from COP29 in Baku! Last week CREO and Investor Leadership Network (ILN) announced a partnership aimed at accelerating private market investments into climate and sustainability solutions.

This partnership is especially focused on emerging markets where the intersection of investment, opportunity, and positive climate impact intersect. By leveraging our combined expertise and best practices, we aim to address key barriers to scaling climate finance and enhancing the resilience of global investment portfolios. This initiative reflects a collective belief that integrating sustainable investment practices across all asset classes will reduce climate-related risks, increase value and help preserve our planet for today’s and future generations. We're excited to collaborate and invite fellow asset owners and partners to join this important strategic initiative.

We are excited to share our latest research authored by Kevin Biehl and Kobi Weinberg, "Six Insights in Climate Technology Project Development."   Climate technology must be rapidly deployed soon and on a massive scale to meet ever-more-urgent sustainability goals, but these projects face unique financing challenges. CREO analyzed dozens of demonstration and commercial scale climate projects, identifying innovative development approaches and key trends across project size, sector, technology scale, government support, and risk mitigation. This research seeks to answer questions about climate project development, such as “what are the characteristics of climate projects that seek financing?” and “what de-risking steps do developers take to deploy climate technology more rapidly?”   One thing we know for sure: developers are financing and building climate projects, despite impediments. To facilitate greater investment, we recently launched a new project-specific intake form to collect and disseminate climate project investment opportunities.   Read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/ePNFR48d

CREO’s latest market research, written by our Senior Manager, Energy David Siap, provides a snapshot of the EV charging software landscape. The paper includes a framework to view the current landscape of startups in the space as well as some analysis of recent funding trends. Vehicle-grid integration (VGI) focused players have attracted the lion’s share of funding in H1 2024 while the rest of the sector seems primed for consolidation. This suggests VGI will remain a target for growth equity and investors in other subsectors may be more opportunistic.
