In his latest Expert View, CEO David Crane reflects on what it will take for the clean energy sector to deliver durable, long-term impact. The piece highlights several important themes shaping the next phase of the energy transition: - The need for greater operational discipline and financial rigor - How scale and sector expertise can help attract institutional capital and manage risk - The importance of purpose-built financing structures to bridge early innovation and mature projects - The role of consolidation in strengthening the sector when pursued intentionally As David notes, moments of volatility can also be moments of clarity. By focusing on fundamentals and building resilient platforms, the sector can move beyond short-term cycles and create lasting value for communities, investors, and the planet. https://lnkd.in/eSpWfExG #EnergyTransition #CleanEnergy #Infrastructure #Resilience

Private investors raised $134.3 billion for infrastructure funds in the first six months of 2025, eclipsing the $111.3 billion raised throughout the entirety of 2024, according to Infrastructure Investor. Data center- and renewables-focused funds accounted for 45% and 36% of the total capital raised, respectively. As these figures demonstrate, load growth, especially for AI data centers, remains a clear and steady tailwind for the energy and infrastructure sectors – and solar, storage, and wind are the most effective technologies to meet this demand.
