Waste generation is continuously on the rise with improper disposal of this waste leading to emissions and environmental contamination.
A significant portion of this waste is organic waste, from which valuable resources can be extracted like biomethane and fertiliser. Anaerobic digestion stands out as an infrastructure solution to close the loop of wasteful linear consumption.
Demand for data storage and processing, accelerated by online meetings and AI advancements, is driving the growth of the data centre industry which requires significant cooling. Industrial cooling consumes large quantities of water and energy, releasing carbon emissions and waste heat....
Download our paper on sustainable heat management to find out how industrial producers can use infrastructure and new technology to ‘green’ their production processes.
Pressure to meet environmental metrics and reporting requirements has increased for institutional investors. Investing in natural capital offers a direct pathway for creating a positive environmental impact.
The green transition depends on essential mined materials, however, mining is a linear, extractive industry that consumes a great deal of energy and pollutes local ecosystems. ‘Greening’ production is essential to reducing heavy industry’s environmental impact especially as we accelerate the transition towards a more climate-friendly economy.
Co-locating appropriate renewable energy and water treatment assets on new and existing sites can achieve waste reduction, circular production and sustainable exploration.
As the year comes to an end, we reflect on the positive environmental impact of our two British Onshore Wind Funds to date.
