Low carbon energies would be more appropriate, I think, because personally, I would not be against financing nuclear power, which has the advantage of being controllable and does not require fossil backup.

Already heavily invested in this sector (and so much the better): it would be better to direct financing to sectors that are struggling to attract it (for lack of visibility, profitability, etc.)

Renewable energies with sustainable and natural materials.
Personally, I don't think solar panels and GRP wind turbines are the solution, but there are alternatives!

Attention, renewable energies are good but it is limited now the production and treatment, especially of solar panels and wind turbines, is still very polluting (extraction of minerals, concrete floors for wind turbines therefore destruction of soils, so destruction of soils, no real recycling alternative to date either...) So yes and no...

Inkwell Starfish What other means of energy production do you suggest in this case
The latest generation wind turbines are entirely recyclable for information
Renewable energies are part of the energy mix recommended by the IPCC to limit global warming to below 2 degrees
on their respective LCA, per kilowatt hour Nuclear 6g of CO2 Wind Power 12g of CO2 Solar 40g Co2 Gas 400g and Coal 800g

Sage Octopus: Maybe wind turbines are entirely recyclable now but their production is still mega-polluting and environmentally invasive. I don't have a miracle solution, all I'm saying is that financing renewable energies is not necessarily all good and ecological, there is a big nuance and I emphasize it, that's all

Inkwell Starfish: Totally agree and renewable energies are good, but maintaining the landscapes is better.

Inkwell Starfish: Companies like the Swedish company CorPower are developing wave energy production methods (wave energy) that are still under-used despite their competitive financial and ecological advantages
