Today SunCable met a major regulatory milestone, receiving environmental approval from the Commonwealth Government under its Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act (EPBC). The SunCable project is the largest renewable energy project in Australia to ever receive an EPBC Act approval. Targeting delivery of up to 4GW of 24/7 electricity to green industrial customers in Darwin and 1.75GW to customers in Singapore via a 4,300km subsea cable, the project will create thousands of jobs and offer a host of opportunities for economic value creation in the region. We congratulate the team on this big achievement and look forward to seeing the project progress into its next phase. #solarpower #renewableenergy https://lnkd.in/ge3reDfj

Great news from two of our portfolio companies - SunDrive and AGL - who are coming together to explore building solar panels in the Hunter Valley. “Our partnership with SunDrive has the potential to deliver significant benefits for Australia’s energy transition. If successful we will create new jobs and careers in the renewables industry as together, we build a new solar manufacturing industry and hub right here in the NSW Upper Hunter region.''

Congratulations to our portfolio company Antora Energy for their amazing progress! Its great to see them recognised by BlackRock CEO and Chairman, Larry Fink, in his annual letter as one of the few companies they backed in 2023 who are contributing to the decarbonisation of industry. #decarbonisation https://lnkd.in/g7zD9ckm
Today, Antora was prominently featured in BlackRock Chairman and CEO Larry Fink's closely-watched annual letter, which “has driven the conversation inside corporate America’s boardrooms for years.” Decarbonizing industry—the single largest source of global emissions—is an extraordinary climate opportunity. It is also an extraordinary financial opportunity. Every year, industrial facilities burn over a trillion dollars in fossil fuels. Undercutting fossil fuels on cost opens up one of the biggest market opportunities in history. The world’s largest, most seasoned investors are recognizing the value of electrifying industry with cheap and abundant renewable energy. Read the full letter to learn why BlackRock and Temasek’s joint venture, Decarbonization Partners, led Antora's recent $150M funding round: https://lnkd.in/eeW3FxKC
