The energy transition underpins the entire global transition to net zero. We need a clean and sustainable energy supply in order to power the green economy.

From smart grids to solar farms to municipal utilities, opportunities abound for investment in the green energy future.
The world can’t build a green economy without a foundation of green cement. It’s the second most used substance on Earth, only after water, and if global cement manufacturing were a country, it would be the third-largest emitter on the planet. That’s why decarbonising the cement industry is one of the highest priorities in the fight against catastrophic climate change. This week, we talk to Transition Programme Policy Analyst Fabio Passaro about how sustainable finance markets and global policymakers can facilitate the cement industry’s transition to a net zero future.
The fight against climate change is an uphill battle, and we need all the help we can get. This week on Ready, Set, Transition, we look at how policymakers can tilt the playing field in the planet’s favor to facilitate a rapid, credible transition to net zero.

Today we’re talking Taxonomy with Climate Bonds' Matteo Bigoni. As the green bond market is growing in prominence, work was needed to level the playing field. Enter the Taxonomy team, working to assist nations to develop their own frameworks whilst combatting greenwashing.
The question is no longer why or whether the global economy needs to swiftly move towards a low carbon, climate adapted, sustainable model, but rather how to urgently finance and operationalise the required transition.
In this session we discuss a range of tools for driving a successful transition to a low-carbon economy, including:
- Transition advisory and verification
- Policy support
- Banking services for transition
- Transition investments
- Disclosure
Speakers:
- Swami Venkataraman (Moderator) Moody's Investor Service, Associate Managing Director Global ESG Analytics & Integration
- Candace Partridge (Speaker) Climate Bonds Initiative, Senior Sustainability Data Manager
- Thatyanne Gasparotto (Speaker) Natixis Corporate Investment Banking, Director, Green & Sustainable Financing Solutions
- Jamie Franco (Speaker) TCW, Managing Director, Global Co-Head of Sustainable Investment Group
- Charlie Gailliot (Speaker) KKR, Partner & Co-Head, Global Climate Investments
Addressing climate change requires fundamental and rapid transformations across all sectors of the economy, including those with the largest and hardest-to-abate emissions. Such transformations cannot be achieved through incremental improvements to established modes and systems alone. Climate action to date is neither broad nor deep enough to be responsive to the scale of the challenge faced. Current and potential issuers of green bonds in a range of sustainable sectors including steel, green hydrogen, renewable energy, grids and transmission, electric vehicles, mass transit, and green buildings, will provide insights into the current green bond issuance efforts and share their perspectives on what the future holds for their respective industries. Speakers
- Marilyn Ceci(Moderator)JP Morgan, Managing Director, Senior Advisor to The Center for Carbon Transition
- David Stickler(Speaker)Hybar, Chief Executive Officer
- Claudia Jaramillo(Speaker)Jacobs, Chief Financial Officer

In 2021 the Biden Climate Summit saw the bulk of the world’s developed economies commit to ambitious 2030 carbon emission targets. The increasing support for climate action policies worldwide presents vast opportunities as we transition our economies.

In order to protect a 1.5° future, world economies need to rapidly transition high emitting sectors to a net zero pathway.

This webinar, held on April 2nd, was hosted by EU TEG members Sean Kidney (CBI) and the two Convenors of the EU Taxonomy Buildings Group, Ursula Hartenberger and Fabrizio Varriale of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). Buildings are responsible for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of carbon emissions. Lowering the carbon intensity of the built environment in cities and urban areas needs significant investment. Join us in this conversation about the challenges of driving capital towards sustainable buildings and net-zero by 2050 and the opportunities opened up by the Taxonomy.
The launch of EU Taxonomy marks a foundational change in how institutional investors, asset managers and corporates will assess and determine low carbon investment directions, climate risk and new opportunities.
The Taxonomy has implications far wider than the EU and will gradually influence regulatory standards, regional guidelines and investor behaviour in multiple jurisdictions.
In the first of a new series of online presentations, Sean Kidney invites TEG Taxonomy Rapporteur, Nathan Fabian, and Taxonomy Usability Lead, Helena Viñes Fiestas to have an in-depth discussion on:
- Who will be affected by the new EU Taxonomy?
- What are the implications for investment in electricity, transport, buildings, etc?
- Is it wishful thinking or is it practical?
- Can the Taxonomy serve as the framework for post-virus stimulus packages?
To be followed by nine "In-Depth Webinars" over the following weeks, April to May. Stay tuned!
