What Drives Energy Investments?

Jeff Currie is the Chief Energy Officer at the Carlyle Group, one of the world’s leading private equity firms.

He is the former Global Head of Commodities Research at Goldman Sachs, where he helped to build their commodities business. During his nearly three decades at the firm, he became one of the leading commodity market analysts.

He authored a paper called "The New Joule Order" in March of this year. In that paper he asserts that decisions affecting energy investment are no longer being driven purely by cost or even environmental concerns. Rather, they are being driven by energy security considerations. This affects real estate investors that are making assumptions about energy investments that have regional impact on real estate in those area.
