Powering the future
Banking the global shift to sustainable energy
Banking the Energy Transition
We are committed to contribute to a future-proof energy system. A system that will strongly revolve around saving energy and using low or no carbon instead of fossil sources: from energy companies to small enterprises, from multinationals to farms or family homes. Green energy should become affordable, available and accessible for everyone.
Global coverage across the entire value chain
Our strategy is based on a clean energy value chain approach with the goal to invest our capital in the reduction of emissions. For over 25 years we have been financing renewable energy projects and we will further increase our efforts to avoid and reduce emissions in sectors where we have a significant position.
Focus on 3 thematic pillars
Massification
We scale up to create resilient supply chains for key decarbonization technologies. Building out the energy grid infrastructure to support resilience and reduce barriers to renewables.
Enable the enablers
Individually strong supply chain partners will benefit from enabling factors such as access to finance, knowledge and networks, and also the regulation that supports the acceleration of the energy transition.
Innovation
Cutting-edge, breakthrough technologies are paramount to accelerating the energy transition.
