In this context we have developed comprehensive clean energy competence in several areas, including onshore and offshore wind, wave, tide, hydro and CO₂ capture. We have state of the art cross industry risk management capabilities and a proven methodology for effective selection and qualification of new technologies. Recently, we have focused on increasing our competence in converting such in-depth technical know-how to explicitly state financial implications for clean tech and renewable energy investors, also incorporating environmental and social impact thus contributing to increased transparency in overall capital market.
