Clean Energy

Low-carbon electricity generation, storage, and grid infrastructure — renewables (wind, solar, hydrogen and fuel cells), energy storage systems and the lithium-ion battery supply chain (cells, packs and modules, cathode and anode materials, electrolytes, recycling), and power grid equipment including transformers. Covers the broader electrification and decarbonization supply chain. Encompasses the Clean Energy Transition macro trend.
