LGC Investment Seminar 2025 - How the net zero energy transition can make a local impact in your area

This episode is sponsored by Downing. Downing is a responsible investment manager with nearly a billion pounds of assets under management in renewable energy and infrastructure.

This episode was recorded live at the LGC Investment Seminar which was held between 27-28 March 2025 in Carden Park, Cheshire. Joining Martin George, deputy editor of Local Government Chronicle, are:

• Tom Williams, head of energy and infrastructure at Downing
• Laura Colliss, pension fund manager at North East Scotland Pension Fund

Together they discuss the investment opportunities for the LGPS to invest in the energy transition ahead of key milestones in 2030 and 2050, the role of Great British Energy and how the LGPS can work with it, and how LGPS funds can use these opportunities to achieve a local impact in their area.
