Introduction to clean energy 3
WHAT IS CLEAN ENERGY? The sustainable energy association defines clean energy as energy derived from renewable, zero-emissions sources ( renewables ), as well as energy saved through energy efficiency ( EE ) measures. Solar Wind Hydro Energy Storage Energy Efficiency Bioenergy Smart Grid Geothermal Heat Pumps 4
Energy Generation (Mtoe) Energy Consumption (Mtoe) CLEAN ENERGY SECTOR OUTLOOK The electricity sector is experiencing its most dramatic transformation since its creation more than a century ago. 1 In 2017 world electricity demand increased by 3.1%, significantly higher than the overall increase in energy demand Policy support and technology cost reductions are leading to rapid growth in variable renewable generation capacity Renewable consumption has increased significantly over recent years, in part due to advances in energy storage solutions Renewables contribution to Total Electricity Generation 2 Renewable Energy Consumption by Type 2 25,000 3,000 20,000 15,000 2,000 10,000 1,000 5,000 0 0 Renewable Energy Generation Total Electricity Generation Hydro Solar Wind Biomass/Geothermal/Other 1. https://www.iea.org/renewables2018/ 2.

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY AND SECURITY SELECTION PROCESS FACTORS DRIVING INVESTMENT DECISIONS The Fund is exposed to a broad range of clean energy investments with a focus on the stability and security of quarterly distributions. The underlying investments of the fund are split between securities issued in OECD countries. Yield sustainability Investment is focused on companies with: - Mature technologies and established track records - Attractive long-term and dependable cash flows - Income generative and profitable with scope for capital growth Credibility of management team Cashflow dependability/ visibility Investments will be selected for inclusion in the Fund based upon a number of key factors, the most significant are: Yield sustainability, inflation hedging characteristics, valuation, size/liquidity and low relative volatility. The fund will be actively managed with a view to maximising returns whilst keeping costs to a minimum. It is the intention of the Fund adviser to keep turnover to a minimum. It is generally the equities in the portfolio which contribute the greatest level of volatility and it is this bucket in which there is likely to be the most active trading. Low relative volatility Size/liquidity Inflation hedging characteristics Valuation 13
SUITABILITY This fund is for investors seeking stable long term dividend income, low volatility, capital protection and growth. REAL ASSETS INCOME DRAWDOWN The Clean Energy sector is diverse and offers low correlation with other asset classes. Investment in clean energy enables investors to contribute to positive environmental solutions To provide investors with regular, sustainable dividends over the long term. Provides capital protection in periods of equity market stress. INFLATION PROTECTION Cash flows from Clean Energy assets are often linked to inflation, thereby protecting cash flows in real terms over time. ALTERNATIVE TO FIXED INCOME AND PROPERTY Clean Energy assets offer an alternative source of income to Bonds and Property. Cashflows from renewable energy assets often include an element of government subsidy or may benefit from tax incentives. LOW VOLATILITY Dependability of cashflows and stability of asset valuations ensures low relative volatility. 14
