Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems like there isn't a specific guide dedicated to renewable energy investment banking. However, you can still prepare effectively by understanding the basics of investment banking and then applying that knowledge to the renewable energy sector.
For technical questions, you might want to brush up on your understanding of valuation metrics like EV/EBITDA, P/E, and EV/EBIT as these are often used in investment banking interviews.
In terms of renewable energy specifics, you could research into different types of renewable energy such as solar power, wind power, and hydro power. Understand the market dynamics, key players, and recent trends in these areas.
For positions and roles, it seems like most groups are located in SF & NYC, with some presence in Houston as well.
Remember, the goal is to show that you can take your investment banking knowledge and apply it to the renewable energy sector. Good luck!

Current renewables banker. The best way to learn is by reading up on recent transactions. The space is pretty new still so it doesn’t have strict yes or no answers to technicals that you may see in more mature coverage groups. When asked a question saying something like “In xyz transaction they did xyz which I think makes the most sense because of xyz. Another transaction would be xyz where they did xyz and that didn’t seem to generate the same attractive result”
It’s like tech to a degree honestly. When you start getting into world changing/highly innovative industries then it’s really about compiling the past and stringing together a coherent story. Much more thought process type questions than black and white answer questions.
