Energy markets in North America face a period of unprecedented change. Calls to reduce the industry’s carbon footprint have grown stronger, throwing the challenges of achieving ambitious targets into sharp relief. The Inflation Reduction Act has fueled a renewable energy gold rush, incentivizing new technologies and carbon-reduction strategies. Meanwhile, market volatility, inflation and an uncertain geopolitical landscape continue to throw uncertainty into the mix.
