Don't be put off by political noise. Reduced competition and growing demand for energy has made investment in US renewable energy generation easier and more attractive, says Natalie Adomait, managing partner and chief operating officer in Brookfield's renewable power and transition group.
Adomait is one of the speakers at the Impact Investor Global Summit on May 20th and 21st in London. In this pre-event special episode of The New Private Markets Podcast, we speak with her about the firm's two giant energy transition funds, interest in emerging markets, and how actions taken by the Trump administration have affected market dynamics.
"For us, this is a fantastic time to invest," she said. "You see a little less competition from investors looking at these large developers that have strong track records, incumbent teams and ready-to-build projects. But there is less competition for them, despite the fact that the demand growth is actually increasing from where we saw it five to 10 years ago. It's easier [to transact], is the short answer, but the more interesting undertone is that it is actually more attractive."
At our upcoming event, Adomait will be speaking on a panel on the economics of the energy transition alongside Anders Bendsen Spohr from Novo Holdings and Stephanie Bilo from ResponsAbility Investments. Marjoleine van der Peet from Collective Action will chair the discussion.
