Organizations of all sizes are looking at renewable energy to improve financial and environmental performance. However, the process of evaluating different products, markets, and risk profiles can be daunting. Renewable energy buyers are often asked to balance competing business priorities, maintain financial performance and satisfy stakeholder expectations. Integrating renewable energy into a portfolio procurement and risk management strategy can be challenging, particularly for organizations with large, geographically diverse portfolios.

Why is Renewable Energy Important?

Renewable energy not only improves the environmental performance of an organization, but it can also hedge rising energy costs, open new revenue streams, and enhance brand value.

The benefits of a strong renewable energy strategy include:

• Reduced carbon emissions: Renewable energy is most often used to displace or offset Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions and represents the most efficient carbon reduction tool for many organizations.
• Managed energy costs: Renewable energy can provide savings against wholesale market prices in many regions, while distributed energy resources can reduce peak demand charges.
• Enhanced brand value: Renewable energy programs may strengthen relationships across an organization’s value chain – from customers to employees to vendors and investors. More and more, organizations are also using renewable energy to differentiate in their markets and grow revenue.
• Lower cost of capital: Leading lenders, investors, and credit rating agencies around the world have all highlighted environmental performance as an increasingly important measure of an organization’s risk, and green bonds have proven an effective way to raise cheap debt.
