Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to present the Special Issue, “Climate Finance and Energy Transition”. Climate change requires a permanent transition toward sustainable energies. This, in turn, implies reshaping the investments and structure of both primary energy markets and energy vector markets. There are several challenges that energy transition poses to investments and financial decisions in addition to energy commodities and vectors. The Special Issue aims at attracting studies that focus on those challenges that lie at the intersection between financial markets analysis, the evaluation of investments, price formation of energy commodities and its evolution, and energy transition. Submissions to this Special Issue should be accounts of studies focusing on i) encompassing environmental and intergenerational externalities in economic decision making; ii) evaluating the direct and indirect effects of climate change on commodity and asset risks; iii) coordinating short- and long-term investment decisions under climate uncertainty; iv) steering technological change toward sustainable energy products and uses; v) evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of climate policies aimed at internalizing climate change risks.
