In the face of ever-increasing demands for energy, the overarching question is clear: How will both companies and communities secure the energy they need today without compromising the future? In this issue on Clean Renewable Energy, we explore different answers to that impactful question, as well as the array of innovative solutions to meet the needs ahead.  

Though I have a lot to say about this month’s theme and what sustainable investors can do, our featured writer Kristin Hull of Nia Impact Capital encapsulated this issue well in her article, The Energy Transition is Here, by stating, “The shift away from oil, coal and gas to renewable energy sources is the defining economic shift of our time, already underway and accelerating. As fossil fuel extraction grows more expensive and complex, as governments worldwide tighten emissions targets, as technology costs continue to fall, and as institutional capital floods into clean infrastructure, renewable energy has evolved from a niche ethical investment into a mainstream sector with compelling financial fundamentals.”
