We are pleased to act as Co-Sustainable Structuring Agent on Ontario Power Generation’s Sustainable Finance Framework, released on June 25th. This builds upon OPG’s prior Green Bond Framework to permit funding of initiatives that create opportunities for Indigenous communities and businesses, new nuclear energy projects and a broader range of clean energy technologies. We are also proud to act as Lead Agent and Joint Bookrunner on OPG’s subsequent issuance of $1 billion of green bonds as part of its medium-term notes program. This marks the inaugural offering under the new Framework. Congratulations to the OPG team on their continued ESG leadership and successful bond offering.

Today, Canada and the United States jointly announced the first co-investments targeting the development of strategic critical mineral deposits in Canada. Two Canadian companies have received funding to advance the resilient development of North American critical mineral supply chains. The United States and Canada pledged to make 2024 the year of implementation and work jointly to support the development of complementary nuclear supply chain capacities sufficient to support our industries and establish a resilient North American nuclear supply chain free from Russian influence. https://lnkd.in/g2RwJzFw

Great that the corporate green bonds are widening to include SMR’s and hydrogen production. Finance - check, technology - check…. Just need to line up the location and sell the output…. PlugNPlay is nearly here…. #Jacobs #JacobsSupplyChainModel
Ontario Power Generation has released its new Sustainable Finance Framework which replaces its 2021 Green Bond Framework, expanding funding eligibility to a wider range of clean energy technologies and indigenous community initiatives. The framework now includes new nuclear projects, renewables, energy efficiency solutions, and climate adaptation efforts.

How can the UK's public and private energy sectors join forces to accelerate UK as a green Superpower? At yesterday’s round table hosted by EY welcoming Minister Andrew Bowie, UK Minister for Nuclear and Renewables, we had some thought-provoking discussions around this and the way forward for UK. With the focus of accelerating growth and investment in the energy sector, we discussed viable strategies and international examples from successful regulatory and policy measures across this space. Insightful contributions highlighted potential opportunities for UK to adopt or even surpass. Our agenda included: 💡 Harnessing international perspectives and learning from our private sector attendees. 💡 Spotting the largest opportunities for the UK. 💡 Discerning where and how HMG could lend its support for this growth. It might be a challenging journey ahead, but after yesterday, I'm more convinced than ever that we’ve got what it takes to make the UK a green superpower. It’s time we harnessed this unique opportunity and played our part in invoking change, advancing growth and contributing towards a greener tomorrow for our nation. #RenewableEnergy #NuclearEnergy #UK #GreenSuperpower #Investment #Growth Department for Energy Security and Net Zero Jeremy Pocklington Hywel Ball Frank O'Keeffe Julie Teigland Andy Baldwin Benoit Laclau Michelle Settecase Chris Lewis Yunus Ozler Lee Downham Hanne Jesca Bax

Thank you Tim Buckley for the post and to Blair Palese and Jez Franklin for the re-share. We need voices to find and help define the opportunities that exist on the back of these challenges. Singapore is a great example. For years Singapore has used it's tax system to attract investment. The OECD is working to change this and impose a minimum Global Tax Rate. In response the Singaporean Government endorses and adopts the changes, but they also introduce new tax rebates for investment in greener, or more future-focused industries; therefore pivoting and transitioning their economy to account for the change. Why do we focus on singular solutions in Australia? Nuclear | Hydrogen | Electrification? I have raised the question before, but why are we not talking about bio-fuels? They sequest carbon as the raw materials grow. Yes, they also emit carbon, but if we insist on bio-80 grades, or above, then we should still see a dramatic reduction in emissions. It is also less costly to convert existing equipment and other infrastructure to support this transition rather than electrification of roadways or hydrogen.
The Australian Financial Review has published Climate Energy Finance's new oped on Twiggy's excellent National Press Club speech yesterday. The brilliant address was given against the backdrop of the latest salvo from the Coalition to disrupt and delay Australia's accelerating #cleanenergy revolution, as Nationals leader The Hon. David Littleproud MP and chief nuclear shill Ted O'Brien MP spruik for a moratorium on large-scale #wind, #solar and #transmission and new subsidies for domestic #rooftopsolar, “firmed up” with the fantastical vapourware of “#nuclear and #CCS on #coal and #gas”. More "policy" nonsense from the perpetrators of a devastating decade of #energytransition failure, now looking to prolong our fossil fuel addiction. As Twiggy said, "bulldust" and "new lies". Co-authored by Dr Annemarie Jonson, we call on Treasurer Jim Chalmers to respond in the May Budget to the US IRA and act on Australia's opportunity to position itself as a global #zeroemissions and value-added #criticalminerals energy transition leader. This requires that we redouble our investment efforts in both utility-scale #renewables infrastructure *and* distributed renewables to power our #decarbonised future. As Twiggy highlighted, Australia now has an #energysecurity issue, relying on a staggering $60 billion a year of imported #diesel and #oil, for which the government provides $11 billion a year in subsidies, an own-goal that acts as a massive barrier to domestic decarbonisation and electrification. 60 years of #fossilfuel subsidies is long enough! As we have argued, a $50m per group annual cap to the diesel fuel rebate would raise $14 billion by 2030 for investment in decarbonisation, commercialising the domestic deployment of mining-sector electric vehicles. https://lnkd.in/gB78CNeg And as Mark Richards says, we need a Oz-IRA. PM Anthony Albanese, your Newcastle speech, where, reflecting on the IRA, you said the gov't needs to "think big" and "be a partner, not just an observer" was a good start, but get Jim and Katie to show us the money! This is a once in a generation investment, employment and export opportunity for our nation, but it needs vision and ambition coupled with patient strategic public capital investment. The Clean Energy Finance Corporation is investing in 6 BESS across Australia bringing 1,700MW of new storage capacity on stream. That is great, but let's double or triple down, and do it much much faster! https://lnkd.in/gSWJR8Dq Let's now mobilise the massive in-house financial capacity of the Future Fund and double the capital and impact of each of Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF), Export Finance Australia, Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) & Virescent Ventures.
