ESG

With over two decades of experience in owning and operating critical infrastructure assets, we appreciate the importance of responsible and transparent stewardship that promotes value-added decarbonization initiatives and integrates the principles of sustainability, where appropriate.

At ArcLight, we embed ESG principles and frameworks into our investment culture because we believe that operations are closely linked to the efficient management of material ESG issues.

Our ESG Program

Our cross-functional ESG Committee, led by Jake Erhard, a Partner and founding member of the ArcLight team, and supported by Valerie Zona, Director of ESG, enables integration of ESG at the highest levels of our firm. The ESG Committee continues to build on the foundation of our ESG investment guidelines for ESG issues, which were initially established in 2011 and comprehensively updated in 2022.

Through the course of each year, we perform annual data collection to assess the performance of our portfolio companies and synthesize the results in our annual ESG Report.
