White papersThe investing value of transition planning
For infrastructure companies, anticipating changes to climate and energy is far more than a risk management process; it can unlock cost efficiencies, operational resilience and support long-term value creation.

White papersSecurity, scale and the economics of clean power in growth markets
In developed markets, the phrase “energy transition” is often seen through a substitution frame: old molecules out, new electrons in. In growth markets, the reality is more urgent and more practical. It is not about replacing one stable system…

Interview“The case for Europe’s energy transition is no longer only climate change”
The energy transition started out as a response to climate change. But Sonja de Ruiter, Head of Fund Management at Triodos Investment Management, now sees a broader picture emerge. “The energy transition is no longer only about climate,” she says. “It is also very much about energy independence and security, both of which are of vital importance to Europe’s economy.”

White papersA renewed imperative for green transition
“The crisis is a stark reminder that security extends beyond defence. It depends, among other things, on secure energy and resilient supply chains. Transitioning to clean energy is therefore both an environmental priority and a strategic imperative for geopolitical strength and economic resilience.”

White papersClimate Action – two years on
Two years ago, L&G and AP7 partnered to invest in high emissions* companies and engaged with them to drive their emissions down over time, in an effort to combine climate impact with shareholder value creation. In this article, we reflect on successes and challenges over two years of engagement by the L&G team.

White papersGreen is not enough: The need to scale up transition finance
Sustainability-related investments have grown rapidly over the past decade. Initially anchored in global climate commitments such as the 2015 Paris Agreement and net-zero targets, investors mainly focused on directing capital toward explicitly ‘green’ investments that have a limited negative impact on the environment, such as those providing products and services needed to mitigate climate change.

White papersClimate Co‑Benefits: The Role of Global Decarbonisation in Social Progress
This paper, authored by Alexandra Matthews and Sindhu Janakiram, argues that climate action, when pursued through a just‑transition framework and backed by rigorous impact assessments, generates immediate and measurable social benefits that can be more tangible than the long‑term climate outcomes themselves. By tracing the pathways from decarbonisation to poverty alleviation, food security and health, the paper emphasises that the twin goals of a low‑carbon economy and social progress are mutually reinforcing.

White papersPowering the path to decarbonisation
As the global push toward decarbonisation evolves, balancing short-term returns with long-term structural opportunities requires a thoughtful mix of proven technologies and development-stage assets. Joost Bergsma of Nuveen Infrastructure shares how investors can build resilient, scalable portfolios across clean energy technologies today.
