Book excerpt: This PhD thesis focuses on issues related to the financing, the determinants and the barriers of renewable energy (RE) in the energy transition. To address these issues, we focus in Chapter 1 at identifying the determinants of solar PV capacities' deployment, and at investigating their dynamics depending on the conditions on the oil market. To this end, we estimate a threshold model on a wide sample of countries and show that the dynamics of oil prices affect various determinants of solar PV deployment. An increase in oil price growth above 6.7 % per annum stimulates solar PV capacities: rising oil prices reduce the relative costs between oil and renewables, making renewable investments relatively more affordable. We also find that energy factor endowments and policy support are significant drivers for solar PV development. In Chapter 2, we investigate the market reaction to announcements linked to core and non-core activities of Total and we examine how financial markets react such announcements. Performing an event study, we show that the market reaction to announcements relying on Total's climate strategy as well as its upstream oil and gas strategy is significant and negative but the market reacts more negatively to the latter. Finally, Chapter 3 analyzes the financing of RE projects in France by paying particular attention to crowdfunding. To this end, we use a discrete choice experiment methodology to investigate French people's preferences in terms of RE projects' financing and pay attention to the monetary issue. We highlight that crowdfunding may be viewed as a promising financing vehicle for the energy transition.
