It's difficult to build high-growth clean tech companies using venture capital: Despoiling the planet has a much higher return on investment than saving it.
Twenty years ago, there were high hopes for companies aiming to mitigate environmental impacts, but an extended recession, China's dominance over solar power manufacturing and low natural gas prices were just a few factors factors that undercut investor expectations and left the industry hobbled for years. Many vaunted products and technology never made it to market.
A 2016 MIT Energy Initiative working paper found that VC is "the wrong model for clean energy innovation." It takes years to create economies of scale, and not every investor is willing to foot the bill for a decade of R&D.

"If a new and more diverse set of actors avoids the mistakes of the clean tech VC boom and bust, then they may be able to support a new generation of clean tech companies," the paper concluded.
That hypothetical cohort is now a reality: A McKinsey report found that climate tech "could attract $1.5 trillion to $2 trillion of annual capital investment" by 2025.
Senior Climate Writer Tim De Chant spoke to five investors to get their take on the state of the industry in Q3 2022. Their answers shed light on how VCs are reacting to the downturn, which tech may have the greatest potential for impact and what they're looking for at the moment:
Pae Wu, general partner, SOSV; CTO, IndieBio
Christian Garcia, partner, Breakthrough Energy Ventures
Rajesh Swaminathan, venture partner, Khosla Ventures
Andrew Beebe, managing director, Obvious Ventures
Amy Burr, president, JetBlue Technology Ventures

Italian bond yields dive and euro climbs as ECB announces emergency meeting on market conditions
European bond yields fell and the region’s single currency climbed on Wednesday as the European Central Bank announced it would hold an emergency meeting to “discuss current market conditions.” The Governing Council’s an “ad-hoc” meeting comes the same day that the Federal Reserve will announce a policy decision, with many expecting an interest rate hike of 75 basis points.

Shares of New Oriental Education & Technology Group (NYSE: EDU), TAL Education Group (NYSE: TAL), and Gaotu Techedu (NYSE: GOTU) -- all for-profit Chinese education stocks -- were rising today, likely for two reasons. First, an analyst's positive note for New Oriental sent shares higher yesterday and likely helped it continue climbing today, while helping its rivals' stocks jump as well. Second, recent reports have highlighted that for-profit education companies, including New Oriental, have begun incorporating e-commerce sales on their technology platforms in an effort to stay afloat after the Chinese government cracked down on the for-profit education sector.

Some see few signs of a bottom in U.S. stocks, even after steep selloff
Despite a crushing selloff that pushed U.S. stocks into a bear market, investors see few signs suggesting equities have hit bottom, as persistent worries over surging inflation and an aggressive Federal Reserve continue to pressure asset prices. The 21.3% year-to-date decline in the S&P 500 as of Monday wiped out some $8.7 trillion in market value this year, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. “This is not necessarily what a bottom looks like," said Mark Hackett, chief of investment research at Nationwide.
