As we already know, the world has gone through drastic changes in recent years, especially, and the most worrying, climate change.
Recently, renewable energies have become very important and several countries have already taken initiatives, however, there is still much work to be done. This year that begins, 2022, is an opportunity for everyone to improve our planet. Therefore, here we will talk about the five most significant renewable energy trends for 2022.
- The data
Although it may seem that it does not make much sense, in this case the data is a fundamental part because with them, the results and tangible changes in the environment can be analyzed. This is important to be able to evaluate progress and thus be able to facilitate the fulfillment of environmental objectives.
Accelerating sustainable investment
In recent years, the issue of sustainability has become one of the main pillars for any company. Likewise, the financial industry and global markets have shown more interest in generating projects with high social and environmental impact (ESG). With this in mind, the investment to finance this type of project will be greater and will continue to grow in 2022. - From shareholders to stakeholders
Since before the pandemic, most companies were largely focused on pleasing their shareholders and maximizing sales. However, culture is changing, so companies also have to change along with it to adapt to new needs and interests. Today, both employees and customers and society in general, give much more importance to social responsibility and what a company does or does not do in that context. With this in mind, a good company will be one that can maximize the welfare of both the company and society, leading from a position focused on future generations. - Growth of renewable energies from the government’s objectives
The new objectives of the governments will begin to put pressure on companies and different industries to improve their environmental footprint and begin to use more and more renewable energies. It is expected that from this, the percentages will grow more and more. - increase transparency
Based on the increase in environmental concern, the UN now requires companies that exceed a certain limit to be transparent with their data so that, in this way, there is greater transparency regarding the environmental impact they are having. Similarly, in 2022, it is intended that there will be more pressure to increase this transparency as it not only benefits consumers and society in general, but also companies to work on effective solutions.
All these trends are of the utmost importance in order to achieve a better environment and a better use of renewable energies. The world is changing, and it is time for us to change with it.
