NextEnergy Capital group lead for nature Hing Kin Lee talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s commitment to protecting and enhancing natural ecosystems. He discussed how NextEnergy Group integrates nature-focused strategies into its solar and energy storage assets, ensuring long-term sustainability.
Lee explained the company's recently launched nature strategy, which addresses environmental risks and opportunities linked to its operations. The strategy aligns with global standards such as the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the Science Based Targets Network (SBTN). Key targets include no conversion of natural ecosystems, responsible land use, nature restoration, and supply chain transparency.
Lee emphasised the dual benefits of clean energy generation and biodiversity enhancement, noting that integrating agriculture with solar (agrivoltaics) can improve land use efficiency. He also highlighted how NextEnergy Capital is exploring natural capital markets and potential financial opportunities from biodiversity gains.
“Since 2014, NextEnergy Capital has been absolutely committed to protecting, conserving, and enhancing natural ecosystems,” said Lee. He believes the company’s nature strategy strengthens its ESG performance and provides additional value for investors.
