Higher bond yields make wind and solar look riskier, fund CEO says
Original: Bonds make wind and solar look riskier but storage has 'options': fund CEO
A fund chief executive says rising bond yields have made wind and solar projects look riskier to investors, since renewables rely heavily on debt financing and fixed returns. He argues that energy storage stands out because it has 'options' — the flexibility to charge and discharge when prices are most favourable — giving it a hedge that traditional renewable assets lack.
Why now: Higher interest rates are squeezing renewable energy economics, prompting debate about which clean energy assets can still attract capital.
