Sustainability in the Energy Industry

Editors: André Dorsman, Özgür Arslan-Ayaydin, Mehmet Baha Karan



Presents a comprehensive collection of new research on green energy, socially responsible investment and Islamic finance

Sheds new light on the energy shift towards renewable energy

Case studies from several countries  

This book analyses how socially responsible investments as well as the rising importance of Islamic finance are linked to the shift towards renewable energy. Academics and practitioners in the field take a global perspective and present case studies from several countries. The book is divided into three parts: The first part sheds new light on the energy shift towards renewable energy. The second shows the increasing interest of investors in sustainability, and the authors argue that investors not only look at expected returns and risks, but also at social returns. Finally, the third part explains the need for social returns in Islamic finance, which cannot be explained by traditional finance theory. This is the fifth volume in a series on energy organized by the Centre for Energy and Value Issues (CEVI).
