Dedicated Team and Accountability
NextEnergy Capital’s dedicated, specialist ESG team reflects NESF’s commitment to ensuring a robust Sustainability and ESG approach is maintained at the heart of its work. The ESG team advising NESF consists of a Head of ESG, Vice President of Nature, Vice President of ESG, two Associates, two Analysts, and one Geospatial Manager who all have targets in their individual performance goals relating to ESG. These relate, for example, to developing expertise in specific areas to support transaction due diligence processes, and leading strategic projects that extend across NESF’s activities, including responsible sourcing.
NESF benefits extensively from the talented and committed teams of NextEnergy Capital and WiseEnergy. Their employees share a passion for the NESF Mission, and contribute a breadth of specialist skills. In particular, under Giulia Guidi’s leadership, the ESG team at NextEnergy Capital is responsible for leading on the NESF Sustainability and ESG agenda, risk management, reporting and stakeholder engagement.
The team has more than 75 years of combined experience across a range of Sustainability and ESG issues relevant to energy infrastructure. The team includes specialist expertise across biodiversity, carbon management, community engagement, data analysis and mapping, supply chains, technical due diligence, policy and public affairs. Other NESF advisers include a Vice President, Nature, who provides environmental governance across the portfolio, driving forward ambitions for net positive biodiversity outcomes through nature-based solutions, ecosystem service provision and climate change resilience.
