Our emissions impact is the resulting positive contribution to decarbonisation from our investments.
There are many ways that NZGIF can positively contribute to decarbonisation, including demonstrating the viability of investment into lower emissions technologies and assets, and leveraging private sector funds into lower emissions business activities. As part of measuring our emissions impact, we estimate the lifetimes emissions reductions of an investment.
Emissions benefits can be seen across our portfolio of investments in multiple sectors, not only in emissions reductions but through other benefits such as market development, electricity system optimisation and resilience, and enabling international players to enter the New Zealand market.
Each investment is unique in its impact profile – but all offer decarbonisation benefits to New Zealand.
