Renewable energy is becoming more cost competitive due to economies of scale, technological innovation and optimised processes.

Key highlights: 

  • Renewables are becoming cost competitive due to economies of scales, technological innovation and optimised processes.
  • Decarbonisation targets, cost competitiveness and the social implications of burning fossil fuels are driving capacity additions in renewables.
  • We look at battery storage – cost curves, regulatory changes and solving for intermittency.
  • Energy efficient homes and appliances are having undeniable impacts on electricity consumption.
  • These themes have significant implications for a number of companies in our global opportunity set, and are already reflected in our portfolio holdings. We favour companies leading the renewables roll-out, and regulated businesses whose revenues are being decoupled from volumes.
