DESCRIPTION: EarthX invites you to apply to participate in our 2022 E-Capital Summit—an industry-leading sustainabilityinvestment summit taking place in Dallas, Texas in April! Visit the E-Capital Summit Website ( [link] ) for more information on how to apply to attend. April 20-22: [link] #Earthx2022.
To meet the growing demand for sustainability, it’s not just about adopting cleantechnologies; it’s about embedding a culture of sustainability into every facet of an organisation. In Australia, examples abound of companies successfully integrating cleantechnologies.
Climate policy response by governments and investment in cleantechnologies must be accelerated to keep temperature rise near 1.5°C, C, according to industry experts speaking at Morningstar’s ‘ SustainableInvesting Summit 2023 ’.
This is according to a new paper published by MSCI, which assessed funds labelled as Article 8 and 9 under the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) on their degree of EU taxonomy-alignment, as well as their performance on, and disclosure of, select adverse sustainability impact indicators, and exposure to sustainableinvestments.
For example, Bristol City Leap – Bristol Council’s energy investment programme – is planning £7 million worth of public investment in decarbonising the city. It also plans to bring in £424 million during the first five years of a 20-year partnership with Ameresco , an independent US cleantechnology integrator.
ESG Investor’s weekly round-up of news about funds designed to meet sustainableinvesting criteria, including Man GLG, UBS AM, Aon, Clean Growth Fund, Foresight, Azalea and SUSI Partners. .
By transparently disclosing climate risks and demonstrating proactive management strategies, businesses can strengthen their reputations, attract sustainableinvestments, and foster long-term relationships with key stakeholders. Climate scenario analysis is a vital step in enhancing stakeholder confidence and trust.
The companies that made the Best 50 are mostly corporations with more than $1 billion in annual revenues, as well as Crown corporations, large co-ops and members of the S&P/TSX Renewable Energy and CleanTechnology Index. Crucially, the companies’ average sustainableinvestment (as a percentage of total investment) hit 58.9%
The energy supply sector is the largest contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions , responsible for approximately 35% of total emissions. “Buildout of proven renewable infrastructure is one of the key levers to clean up energy supply,” Frances Aderhold, SustainableInvesting Research Analyst at FTI, told ESG Investor.
Having led the world in laying out frameworks to channel sustainableinvestment, Europe is now preparing to borrow from the US playbook, not least to protect investment flows.
With the looming Paris Agreement goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 43% by 2030, nations are adopting different approaches to stimulating their green economy and encouraging sustainableinvestment.
These are essential for building wind turbines, EVs, advanced semiconductors, and virtually all other cleantechnologies, which countries need to transition their economies away from fossil fuels to net zero emissions by 2050. As trade tensions over cleantechnologies intensify between China and the U.S.
Reducing these emissions has required governments to introduce electric vehicle incentives, companies to set manufacturing targets and consumers to factor sustainability into their transportation decisions – positioning EVs as the cleantechnology that will dominate the future of transport. per litre respectively in July 2022.
Providing hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies to cleantechnologies, it was the biggest climate law in the country’s history, flexing America’s financial muscle in a way that Europe would struggle to compete with – much to the ire of some of its leaders, the most vocal of whom was France’s President Emmanuel Macron.
The key is for the EU to distinguish between these two actions: simplifications that will help companies continue to build competitive advantage based on sustainableinvestments, and deregulation that will favour laggards. But while simplifying implementation is important, it should not justify rolling back core regulations.
I needed to be back in Toronto to present our latest sustainableinvestment research to attendees at a summit hosted by the Principles for Responsible Investment , whose signatories manage US$121 trillion in assets. Let’s be clear here: the sustainableclean energy economy is experiencing exponential growth.
According to Victor van Hoorn, newly-appointed Director of Cleantech for Europe , there is still a lot of work to be done in scaling up some of this technology, to bring marginal costs down and make the sector a viable component of Europes competitive agenda. He added that what matters is the long-term trend. He used China as an example.
Despite Trumps less-than-supportive stance, unforeseen sustainableinvestment opportunities may thrive during his tenure. The narrative [around the energy transition] has dampened as the political environment in the US turns hostile, but that doesnt mean actual sustainableinvesting will necessarily be significantly hit, Drummond adds.
It’s been just over six months since US President Joe Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law, pledging US$369 billion to accelerate the upscaling and deployment of renewable energy and cleantechnologies across the US. “It’s an unparalleled and historic piece of climate legislation that’s likely to be a significant catalyst for driving (..)
