The Need for More Liquid and Efficient Clean Energy Financing

After years of flat load growth, US demand for electricity is growing quickly. Satisfying this demand will require reliable and resilient clean energy supply chains and trillions of dollars of investment. The current process for raising capital is slow, fragmented, and opaque, however. As the US grapples with how to meet increased demand for energy, the need to make clean energy financing more liquid, efficient, and intelligent is especially urgent.

Crux's whitepaper focuses on the challenges and opportunities in clean energy capital markets. It examines:

• Challenges facing clean energy developers, manufacturers, and investors throughout the project finance lifecycle.
• How tax transferability has changed project finance.
• The connection between tax credit monetization and lending.
• How clean energy development and manufacturing can be transformed by accessible project financing.
