How this measure is built
- Definition
- Total capital invested in renewable energy projects and companies during a given year.
- Measure
- One slice of Capital investment ( form: level, segment: renewable energy ) . Total monetary funds invested in capital assets, facilities, or infrastructure. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
- Limitations
- Publishers release on different schedules, so the latest period differs by region; compare regions on the same period. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
- Verification
- Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
