Where is sustainability headed in 2024?

Efforts to advance decarbonization across the globe remain in the early stages—providing an enormous opportunity for green-minded companies to innovate and make a difference. We expect sustainability to remain a priority for business leaders and policymakers in 2024. As we work with the companies navigating this transition, we’re excited to share some of the key renewable energy, sustainable finance and climate tech trends we anticipate for the year ahead.

This first edition of our new quarterly roundup also celebrates four of the companies that closed meaningful transactions in 2023 supporting continued energy transition. In addition, we want to be sure you’ve seen the valuable thought leadership our experts have produced to educate, inspire and advance the energy transition. Check out the 2024 trends to watch below.

Outlook 2024: What trends to watch

• We could see efforts toward the energy transition accelerate again in 2024—and some major new technology projects come online.?
• In 2024, U.S. tax equity could be the single most important financing market for the energy transition in the world. J.P.?Morgan teams will be watching developments around tax credit transfers, technological eligibility and tax equity bridge loans very closely.?
• We continue to monitor the evolution of the broader macroeconomic and equity capital markets environment, which provides a relatively challenging backdrop for the sector with a resetting of investor expectations and market valuations.
• We’re closely monitoring how public policy may impact low-carbon investment, either directly, like the Basel III Endgame, or indirectly, like the climate disclosure rules expected from the SEC and the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.
• We’re also increasingly finding ways to use our entire platform to help remove bottlenecks to real economy transition.
