Supporting the energy transition

We're working to support the transition to a low-carbon economy by scaling green solutions, balancing environmental, social and economic needs, and managing our operational footprint.

We help clients navigate the challenges and realize the economic opportunities of the transition to a low-carbon economy. We believe supporting our clients, through advice and capital, to accelerate their low-carbon transition objectives creates positive environmental benefits and generates long-term financial returns for our shareholders.

Separate from our firmwide sustainability efforts, J.P. Morgan Asset Management has developed its own approaches and investment processes. To learn more, please click here.

Axios Sustainability Video Transcript

 

JPMorganChase is advancing a more sustainable economy.

Clean technology, like energy storage solutions.

Sustainable transportation, like electric vehicles.

Water and waste management, and constructing green, energy-efficient buildings.

These are just some examples of how the world is leveraging technology and innovation to move towards a more sustainable future.

Real change will require major structural shifts on a global scale – and every part of the economy has a role to play.

JPMorganChase is doing our part to help realize the sizable economic opportunities that the transition presents.

We’re advancing long-term clean energy solutions and strategies with our clients while also working to provide energy securely, reliably and affordably.

Our target is to finance and facilitate 2.5 trillion dollars over ten years to advance clean energy solutions, contribute to sustainable development, and help drive a stronger, more inclusive economy.

One trillion of that is specifically for green initiatives.

The transition to a more sustainable world is accelerating, and we will continue to provide expertise to clients to help them realize their transition objectives.
