There’s a huge opportunity for growth in the resources, energy and infrastructure (REI) sectors in 2025, across Australia and through ANZ’s international network, as businesses continue to make the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In Australia, activity in the renewables sector has been strong across wind, solar and batteries, and we expect that pipeline to continue to build throughout 2025.
We’re also having conversations with businesses in ANZ’s international network – particularly from Europe – that have identified Australia as a priority investment destination. That’s a theme we’ll be keeping a close eye on in 2025.

The transition is complex, and we expect the REI sector will continue to take a considered approach in 2025. Community engagement and maintaining a social licence to operate will be an ongoing priority for many businesses in the sector.
ANZ will continue to support businesses from across our network as they consider a broad range of transition solutions, including increased use of renewable energy, and investment in areas like battery manufacturing and carbon capture and storage.
The pipeline of new projects and opportunities in this area is strong and we expect it will continue to be throughout 2025.
The year 2025 looms as another exciting one for businesses, with persistent inflation and geopolitical change creating a landscape of uncertainty and opportunity in the Asia-Pacific region.
The increasing speed of digitisation, dawn of the real-time economy, and shifting supply chains will all also have a role to play in shaping the macroeconomic environment.
At ANZ Institutional, we know business are looking to position themselves to take advantage of these trends.
As part of our Outlook 2025 series, we’re asking our subject-matter experts to provide insights into a range of complex areas from across close to 30 markets – helping you better understand how you can prepare for the New Year. We’ll be sharing the responses over the coming weeks.
At ANZ, throughout 2024 we helped many of our infrastructure customers access finance through local and offshore loan and debt-capital markets as many of them deliver on large scale capital expenditure programs. We look forward to continuing to assist where we can in 2025.
In short, there are exciting times ahead in the resources, energy and infrastructure sector.
Paul Richards is Global Head of Resources, Energy & Infrastructure at ANZ Institutional
