Daniella has over 30 years of global experience in project development,

Shell. She brings a depth of experience in key target markets and a direct
understanding of the local impact of the Company's investments. Her experience
will help strengthen the Board's ability to ensure investments are aligned

Throughout her professional life, she has worked in Brazil, US, Abu Dhabi, The

of the G100, whose mission is to promote actionable thought leadership with
multi-lateral organisations in support of the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goal #5, Gender Equality.

 

Bernard Bulkin, Chairman of the Company, commented: "Daniella brings to the
Board a wealth of experience advising governments and companies on how to
integrate ESG principles into business practice. Her 30-year career brings
valuable insight and an impressive track record working in key markets
including Brazil where she holds dual citizenship, and we already have
significant solar and hydro investments. On behalf of all our investors and
stakeholders, we look forward to welcoming her to the Board and the valuable
contribution that she will make."
