Private Equity and Energy Transition

The decarbonization goals set by national governments and international alliances require massive capital, much of it to come from private funds.  Private capital, however, does not get invested to achieve policy goals, it gets invested to earn returns.  Our panel of experts will discuss the role and opportunities for private equity in the energy transition, the return expectations of investors, policies that facility (or impede) the flow of private capital, and the transition of legacy energy-focused private equity firms themselves in their investment strategies.
