It’s generally accepted that “Energy Transition Investment”, a market that requires US$125 trillion by 2050 to enable the largest and most developed countries in the world to achieve their promise of net zero emissions by 2050, is the most attractive and lucrative investment opportunity for global investors in the coming decade.
Annual global investment in this sector reached a record high of US$755 billion in 2021 (up 27% over the past year) and we’re already seeing significant flows into projects offering exposure to the growth in (amongst others) new sources of renewable energy, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear, hydrogen and sustainable materials.
As you can see from the infographic below from Visual Capitalist, China is already investing more than one-third of the world’s total investment into this sector (more than the USA, Germany, UK, France, Japan and India combined) making it a market that is certain to attract the attention of global investors seeking opportunities to invest in some of the most innovative and fast-growing companies of the future.
Many of these Chinese companies will only be accessible to investors who participate in China’s domestic sharemarkets.
Another compelling reason to invest in China.
