English
This study examines the impact of financialization and fintech on solar, wind, and hydropower in the top 32 RECAI countries from 2000-2024. Empirical results show conventional financial development does not significantly support renewable expansion, while fintech emerges as a key driver for solar and wind. The findings highlight the need for targeted financial and technological policies tailored to specific renewable sources.

日本のGX文脈において
日本のGX政策においても、再生可能エネルギー普及には単なる金融市場の発展ではなく、フィンテックを活用した資金調達メカニズムの構築が重要であることを示唆する。特に、太陽光・風力に特化した政策設計の参考となる。
In the global GX context
This paper provides cross-country evidence on the heterogeneous effects of financialization and fintech across renewable sources, offering insights for global energy transition finance. It underscores the need for source-specific policies rather than broad financial development strategies.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract The global transition toward renewable energy has intensified as concerns over environmental sustainability and climate change continue to grow. Despite this momentum, the high upfront capital requirements of renewable energy projects highlight the critical role of financialization in facilitating their development. Against this background, this study examines the impact of financialization on three major renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydro incorporating the roles of financial technology, institutional quality, geopolitical risk, and political cooperation in the top 32 Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index (RECAI) countries over the period 2000 to 2024. To achieve these objectives, the study employs a range of panel econometric techniques to analyse the long-run and short-run relationships among the variables. The empirical results indicate that conventional financial development does not significantly support the expansion of renewable energy sources in RECAI countries. In contrast, financial technology emerges as a key driver of solar and wind energy development. Furthermore, institutional quality and political cooperation do not promote solar and hydro energy deployment, while geopolitical risk shows a positive association with solar, wind, and hydro energy production. Based on these findings, the study highlights the need for RECAI countries to move beyond broad financial development strategies and adopt targeted financial and technological policies tailored to specific renewable energy sources. Strengthening fintech-driven financing mechanisms and designing risk-resilient energy policies could enhance renewable energy deployment and support long-term energy transition goals in leading renewable energy economies.
