SDCL Energy Efficiency Income | ESG

SEEIT’s investment objective is to generate an attractive total return for investors comprising stable dividend income and capital preservation, with the opportunity for capital growth.  SEEIT achieves this through investing principally in a diversified portfolio of energy efficiency projects with high-quality counterparties.  SEEIT’s investments positively impact the environment by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide produced and increasing the amount of renewable energy generated.

SEEIT’s investment approach is focused on investments in energy efficiency projects located primarily in the UK, Continental Europe and North America.  These assets are predominantly proven operational projects that deliver energy savings for commercial, industrial and public sector buildings.  SEEIT seeks to invest in projects for the long term with a focus on optimising and improving assets.    SEEIT is managed by Sustainable Development Capital LLP, which specialises in sustainable energy projects delivering efficient decentralised energy generation and demand side reduction solutions.

SEEIT invests exclusively in projects which contribute to a greener future. The company is dedicated to accelerating the transition to a low carbon economy and delivering long term value for shareholders and society as a whole.  SEEIT’s focus in looking at the material ESG attributes in its investments covers four principal areas:

• Aiding the transition to a net-zero carbon economy by maximising energy efficiency through its investment strategy and operations;
• Pro-actively minimising the environmental footprint of its operations through managing negative impacts, such as waste, biodiversity loss, and emissions;
• Securing robust governance and business integrity, including assessing resilience to physical climate risk and engaging as an active participant on ESG with its delivery partners; and
• Providing safe environments for all workers, contractors and members of the community who use or come into contact with its projects.

SEEIT has been awarded the Green Economy Mark from the London Stock Exchange.  The Green Economy Mark identifies London-listed companies and funds that generate between 50% and 100% of total annual revenues from products and services that contribute to the global green economy.
