Our Approach to ESG
By prioritising environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, we aim to not only generate strong financial returns but also contribute meaningfully to Australia’s clean energy future.
Investing to build a sustainable future
At Foresight, we are committed to driving Australia’s transition to a low-carbon economy by investing in sustainable, renewable energy and infrastructure projects. With Australia aiming to reach Net Zero emissions by 2050, the need for A$320 billion of renewable energy and network infrastructure investment is clear. Foresight is at the forefront of this shift, leveraging our expertise as one of the first institutional investors to develop, build, and operate renewable assets in the region.
Our approach is underpinned by a focus on zero or low-carbon emission energy generation, which is central to achieving Australia’s climate targets. We actively support and align with Federal and State government policies, which are driving Net Zero objectives through a range of legislation and support regimes. With over A$300 billion required to meet these targets, we are dedicated to delivering long-term, sustainable value by investing in sophisticated, well-developed infrastructure and renewable energy markets.
By prioritising environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, we aim to not only generate strong financial returns but also contribute meaningfully to Australia’s clean energy future.
