Green finance is a phenomenon that combines the world of finance and business with environmentally friendly behavior. It is a stage for many participants, including individual and business consumers, producers investors, and financial lenders. Green finance can be expressed differently depending on the participants’ financial incentives(动机), desires to preserve the planet, or a combination of both. In addition to showing environmentally friendly behavior, such as promoting mass transit or the recycling of used goods, green finance is about preventing the promotion of any business or activity that could do damage to the environment now or future generations.
Financial institutions that extend lending to individuals, small businesses, or large corporations can do so in an environmentally friendly manner. In this type of green finance, loans are used for the proliferation(扩散)of renewable energy, for instance. A lender could finance the development of a solar power plant that generates power from the sun and panels installed on the roof of a building or residence. Wind power generation is another of business that would get support from green financiers. These com panes develop expensive wind farms that use large turbines onshore and of shore to capture the wind and generate energy.
Energy producers, who use fossil flues, including coal, are not likely to participate in any type of green finance. Coal is a traditional power source that release emissions into the air, substances that are largely considered harmful to the environment. As a result, a coal producer is the type of company that a green financer would likely avoid.
Offering environmental incentives to market participants is a useful way to drive the development of green businesses. Small businesses that are not even in the business of clean energy can participate because this is an extremely proactive(主动的)form of green financing. For instance, a company that sells vehicles may focus on selling cars that are designed to use a hybrid fuel combining both fossil fuels and renewable energy. This business might offer customers an incentive to purchase a car, for example, and in exchange for every vehicle that is sold, the dealer will purchase and plant a tree to promote a clean environment.
Venture capital its(风险投资者), or firms that extend financing to start up companies for growth, participate in green finance in an active way. Many firms are behind emerging technologies clean energy that are expected to produce a greater portion of the world’s power in the future. Venture capitalists specialize in risky and emerging technologies and as a result, tend to have a hand in green financing.
