ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investing has gained significant traction in recent years, and its importance in supporting green energy projects cannot be overstated. ESG investing focuses on considering the environmental impact, social aspects, and governance practices of companies when making investment decisions.
Our investments (and our choice of investor partners) into green energy projects are guided by ESG principles and we are socially conscious investors – and we expect our partners to have same set of standards. We believe in the power of investing in renewable energy sources and sustainable infrastructure to combat climate change and create a greener, more resilient planet. Explore our portfolio of green energy projects and join us in making a positive impact while achieving financial returns.
Investing in green energy projects through an ESG lens addresses pressing global concerns such as climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation. Green energy projects, such as renewable energy generation, energy efficiency initiatives, and sustainable infrastructure development, play a crucial role in transitioning to a low-carbon economy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Moreover, ESG investing emphasizes the social dimension of investment decisions. Green energy projects often create employment opportunities, foster local economic growth, and enhance community well-being, improving relationships with employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities. By supporting these projects, investors can promote inclusive economic development, alleviate poverty, and enhance social equity. Additionally, investments in green energy can lead to improved public health outcomes by reducing air and water pollution associated with traditional fossil fuel-based energy sources.
ESG investing also places strong emphasis on governance practices, ensuring that companies adhere to ethical standards and transparent reporting, including company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls, and shareholder rights. Investing in well-governed green energy projects reduces the risk of environmental and social controversies, while also promoting accountability and long-term sustainability.
The importance of ESG investing into green energy projects extends beyond financial returns. It aligns investors’ portfolios with their values, enabling them to make a positive impact on the environment and society. That is why we screen our partners (and expect them to do it too) based on corporate policies, avoiding companies engaged in risky or unethical practices.
With our corporate climate policies, choice of partners and our projects, we are reducing energy use, waste, pollution and improving , natural resource conservation, and treatment of animals. We are actively managing risks, evaluating any environmental and business risks a us, our partners and our projects might face.
ESG and sustainability are closely related, and we know that ESG investing will drive real change for the common good – that is why we believe that ESG principles are even more important in our energy projects with realistic, measurable, and actionable goals. We judge ourselves and everyone else by this standard.
