In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the conflict between liberal camps centered upon the US and Europe and autocratic camps centered upon China and Russia is growing. Finally, international trade, which had been free for more than 30 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, is becoming increasingly blocked. For fossil fuels, supply is limited due to conflicts between the two camps, including between the US and China in 2018, Australia and China in 2021, and Russia and Western Europe in 2022. In the meantime, many countries are strengthening their individual carbon-neutral policies to address climate change. Accordingly, we believe that responses to climate change going forward will become a means for countries to regulate one another. Given carbon neutrality and energy independence needs, nuclear power is expected to become a major source of power. In addition, the expansion of the renewable energy market, which has secured economic feasibility compared to fossil fuels, is to accelerate the global transition towards a hydrogen economy. Given this rapidly changing world order, we believe it is time to take a close look at how green energy market being reorganized.
