Renewables: moving beyond the spin by pushing for circularity

As asset managers look at the financial and environmental benefits of clean energy, one practical way to invest is buying shares in renewable energy infrastructure investment trusts. These own and operate assets, such as wind farms and solar power plants, and sell the energy generated. These trusts deliver high income returns by distributing their profits in the form of dividends. Over the long term, they also act a portfolio diversifier as their performance is not strongly correlated with equity or bond markets.
