Reasons to consider
Competition: the ever-falling cost of energy production puts renewables on par with conventional generation sources.
Innovation: a growing number of solutions to the energy transmission, distribution and storage challenges enable integration of existing and emerging renewable technologies in energy systems.
Financing: mature renewable energy technologies allow a sound cash flow predictability.
In a low interest rate environment, renewable energies have attractive risk-adjusted return potential.
Long-term investments in tangible assets with relatively steady, low volatile, inflation-linked cash flows and low correlation to the business and capital market cycles.
“Investing in energy transition is not just useful, it’s essential. Developing renewable energies, low carbon transportation and energy efficiency are the main levers that will do a lot to help meet the goals set by the Paris Agreement”

Employees
(1) Introduced in France in 2018 under the Pacte Law, a ‘société à mission’ company must define its "raison d'être" and one or more social, societal or environmental objectives beyond profit. The purpose, and objectives aligned with this purpose, must be set out in its Articles of Association. The Articles specify the means by which the execution of the Mission will be monitored by a Mission Committee (a corporate body distinct from the board of directors which is responsible for monitoring the implementation of the mission with at least one employee.) An independent third party then verifies the execution of the Mission, via a written opinion which is annexed to the report of the Mission Committee to shareholders and made available on the website of the company for a period of five years.
(2) Since 2006, the B Corp movement has been promoting strong values of change throughout the world to make businesses “a force for good” and to distinguish those which reconcile profit (for profit) and collective interest (for purpose). B Corp’s goal is to certify companies that integrate social, societal and environmental objectives into their business model and operations. More details here.
