Financing the Energy Transition

By Brian Scott-Quinn

This book explores the central role of infrastructure finance, capital markets and emerging energy technologies in delivering the global energy transition. Providing an integrated perspective, it shows how innovative financing structures and technological advances must work hand in hand to accelerate the shift to a low-carbon economy. As one of the defining infrastructure and financing challenges of the twenty-first century, the energy transition will require trillions of dollars of investment, new financial models and the successful deployment of transformative technologies.

Combining academic rigour with real-world case studies, the book examines the financial architecture behind the transition - from venture capital, project finance, green bonds and blended finance to public-private partnerships, innovative financing structures and the growing role of AI and hyperscalers in energy investment. It also explores the technologies shaping tomorrow's energy systems, including advanced nuclear, renewable energy, concentrated solar power, hydrogen, energy storage, carbon capture and AI-enabled electricity networks. Written by authors with experience across the energy industry, investment banking and academia, this book is an essential reference for investors, infrastructure professionals, policymakers, engineers, researchers and graduate students seeking to understand - and finance - the future of global energy systems.
