With datacenter build-outs aimed at meeting the rising demand for AI complicating efforts by hyperscalers to lower carbon footprints, Bracewell’s Hans Dyke told S&P Global that sustainability is still a priority.
“I truly think we’ve crossed the Rubicon in this regard,” said Dyke. “In terms of the energy grid and the energy technology markets and what our clients do, building infrastructure and owning infrastructure assets, I don’t see a real risk in the sustainability piece going away. It’s just too embedded now into the way we finance projects, in the way corporates procure clean energy.”
