Quantifying ESG: Should we care about grid inertia?
The recent massive power outage in Spain and Portugal has led to discussions around renewables and grid inertia, so it's probably worth a deeper understanding
...
The outage raised critical questions about the resilience of modern electricity grids with high levels of renewable energy penetration. Specifically, the event prompted the crucial debate: could the high percentage of renewables like solar PV and wind have contributed to grid instability during the incident?
And if so, how are other countries with significant wind and solar power in their electricity mix (such as Denmark, the Netherlands, and Germany) managing these challenges seemingly without experiencing similar widespread system collapses?

Regnan: Thriving in a Changing Landscape: Recalibrate not Obliterate Strategic Human Capital Efforts that Create Value
In recent months, the U.S. federal government has been actively dismantling diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies and programs across federal agencies and businesses with government contracts. This shift, driven by executive orders aimed at “Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs” and “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity,” has significant implications for both public and private sectors.
As the private sector is urged to follow suit, it raises important questions about the future of DEI initiatives.
Regnan shares why management of strategic human capital remains essential to maximising business performance and highlights how companies can effectively navigate these changes.

Generation IM: Accelerating the Transformation of Healthcare Through AI-Powered Automation
"Healthcare in the United States is at a critical inflection point. It has the highest spend in the world (and rising), yet >70% of Americans feel failed by their health system[1] and about half of providers report burnout[2].
Across healthcare, providers want to be high-performing with personalized, efficient and value-oriented care, but information blind spots and administrative burdens make it incredibly difficult.
At Generation, we think that better visibility, coordination and automation can fundamentally address these challenges and unlock better patient outcomes.
Our recent investment in Innovaccer is a testament to this vision, as we believe its comprehensive suite of AI-powered solutions helps establish a new normal."

Planet Tracker: Global Plastic Treaty: Why investors should support a strong treaty
(https://planet-tracker.org/global-plastic-treaty-why-should-investors-support-a-strong-treaty/)
The second, and hopefully final, round of negotiations for a strong Global Plastics Treaty will take place this August in Geneva. Investors must continue supporting a strong treaty, as it would reduce risks in the plastic value chain.
A successful treaty should feature legally binding commitments to cut down plastic production, impose restrictions on harmful chemicals, tackle microplastic pollution, enhance waste management and establish financial mechanisms to ensure a fair transition. Companies across the value chain have a responsibility to uphold transparency, accountability, and align their efforts with the goals of a strong treaty.

Clean energy technologies to reduce emissions, confront climate change
As we move into 2025, the clean energy sector is witnessing transformative trends that are reshaping the landscape of energy production and consumption.
The global commitment to emissions reduction has spurred unprecedented growth in clean energy investments, leading to a surge in innovative technologies that promise to enhance efficiency, reduce costs and improve energy reliability.
Additionally, geopolitical tensions, particularly concerning China's dominance in the clean technology supply chain, are influencing global energy strategies and investment decisions.

ABN Amro: ESG Economist - Are US tariffs a catalyst for EU energy transition?
"The world we are living in is changing at a fast pace where a decades-long pro-globalisation stance is being challenged by the vulnerability of supply chains during the COVID pandemic and the energy crisis after that. Furthermore, faced with domestic challenges and the rise of nationalism, the prioritization of domestic agendas has come to the fore in many countries. The most recent development in this regard is the (proposed) new tariffs imposed on imports from several trading partners by the new US administration, along with a rolling back of climate policies.
This opens the door to multiple scenarios of retaliation and the rise of trade wars between the US and its trading partners (see our most recent macro notes on the subject and. These trade conflicts could affect trade flows, growth rates, and transition pathways all over the world. In this note, we revisit the concepts of free trade and the role of its international governing body, the WTO.
We also outline the main channels by which a US invoked trade war affects the transition process in the EU highlighting the main impacts on cost structures and supply chains. We end with a conclusion. This note is the first part of a series analysing the impacts of trade war on the energy transition."
