C-MACC Weekly “CRETER” (Climate etc.)
Sunset Now: Cost Pressures & Delays Obscure Underlying Growth
- Wind and solar industry demand fundamental projections are great under most scenarios. Delivery shortfalls and raw material inflation are spoiling the party.
- Installation shortfalls risk some of the base case scenarios for energy transition and jeopardize many of the very bullish projections around cheap green hydrogen.
- Materials availability constraints may be more significant than new solar module capacity builds – investment will face challenges if module makers are squeezed.
- We also look at inflation in the ag-based raw materials for many renewable initiatives and note that it is a relative game, and the correlation with oil is high.
- Otherwise, we look at several renewable initiatives, possible higher carbon prices in Europe, and why 2021 ESG pledges will need to become 2022 action.
