Abstract
The crucial role that financial markets have played in accelerating the shift to clean energy and renewable sources of energy is examined in this article. Thus, we built global essential mineral trade networks from 1999 to 2020 using a complex network technique to analyze their topological properties quantitatively. The impact of crucial mineral trade patterns on the growth of renewable energy is then examined using the dynamic econometric model, along with the mediating function of technological advancement in renewable energy. It analyzes investment patterns and possibilities in various industries while underlining the critical role that financial systems play in determining the speed and scope of the change. The research uses data from reliable sources and thoroughly analyzes the body of current literature. The data shows that investments in clean technologies and renewable energy have significantly increased recently. This increase may be ascribed to several causes, including favorable governmental regulations, falling renewable energy technology prices, and rising environmental consciousness among the general people. Venture capital, private equity, public markets, and specialist funds are just a few examples of financial markets that have been instrumental in directing funding to these industries. The report also reveals a change in how money is invested in the energy industry, with conventional investments in fossil fuels declining and investments in renewable energy growing significantly. The profitability and appeal of renewable energy projects, which are now competitive with traditional energy sources, are driving this transformation. The report also identifies new investment possibilities in clean technology, including smart infrastructure, grid modernization, and energy storage. Due to their potential to improve the effectiveness, dependability, and sustainability of energy systems, these areas are expanding. The results highlight the need to establish long-term stability and incentives for investment in the clean technology and renewable energy industries. Government assistance has considerably aided investor confidence, including carbon pricing systems, tax incentives, and subsidies for renewable energy sources. This analysis emphasizes how critical financial markets are to accelerating the energy transition. Financial markets may hasten the transition to a sustainable energy system by directing investments into clean technologies and renewable energy industries. To take advantage of the investment possibilities given by the energy transition, policymakers, investors, and industry stakeholders must work together.
