As submissions pour in for IJGlobal ESG Awards 2022, Infra Dig turns its focus on a winner from last year’s inaugural event when we celebrated organisations, transactions and individuals that truly turned the dial on the environmental, social and governance front in infrastructure and energy.

IJGlobal editorial director Angus Leslie Melville speaks to Nicholas Beatty, founding director of Zenobē Energy Limited, about their success as winner of the ESG Infrastructure Deal of the Year 2021.

Zenobē Energy won the award for Project Blaise – a landmark £150 million equity raise from Infracapital to accelerate investment into battery storage and bus fleet electrification in the UK and international markets where it operates.

Conversation evolves beyond rank self promotion for the IJGlobal ESG Awards and turns to how Zenobē is evolving its business as it builds a presence – beyond its home market of the UK – in Benelux, Australia and New Zealand.
