Green Finance and Energy Transition

Economic models must evolve to avoid irreversible consequences for our planet in the face of climate change. The question is: How can we provide a growing population with access to affordable, viable energy while preserving our environment? Green finance is a pivotal concept that guides financial actions and operations toward fostering the energy transition and combating global warming. Finance, a key player in resource allocation, now incorporates an environmental dimension alongside the pursuit of economic profitability, setting it apart from 'traditional' finance. This book presents methods to provide a framework for financial transactions, support sustainable development, combat global warming, and enhance the transparency of financial product providers.
