Building Portfolios for the Energy Transition – Hidden Risks and Strategies for Success

As we move further into the Energy Transition, the portfolio-level impacts of renewable energy procurement and electricity decarbonization are becoming increasingly apparent, prompting a shift from “project-by-project” decision-making to more holistic total portfolio planning and analysis. Whether on the buy or sell side of a project or contract, the intermittency of wind and solar generation requires diversification and risk management considerations be acknowledged at the point of origination. As such, the way in which today’s energy portfolios are built is just as critical to long term success as the way they are managed on an ongoing basis.

This webinar will explore the risks embedded within today’s energy portfolios and offer strategies to help growing portfolios maximize resiliency against rapidly-changing market environments. Attendees will learn:

– How do risks associated with renewable energy differ at the portfolio vs. the individual project/contract level?
– How can diversification be “baked-in” to growing portfolios to add resiliency?
– What considerations besides pure economic value/cost should be addressed when evaluating additions to an existing portfolio?
– What role should analytics and ML/AI play in managing today’s energy portfolios
– What products/structures are emerging within the market to serve modern portfolio management goals?
