Bitcoin’s Role in the Clean Energy Transition | Sustainable Investment Forum 2024

Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol CEO Brad Van Voorhees discussing Bitcoin’s Role in the Clean Energy Transition at Sustainable Investment Forum 2024

At NY Climate Week 2024, Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol (SBP) showcased to top climate leaders how it is pioneering a new category of investment derived from the Bitcoin ecosystem. As the first environmental commodity specific to Bitcoin, SBP empowers institutional investors to achieve both strong financial returns and measurable climate impact by verifying bitcoin mining’s renewable energy usage.

Through expert-led discussions and interactive exhibits, SBP demonstrated Bitcoin's environmental impact and its role in advancing the global energy transition. By emphasizing the percentage of bitcoin mining done with renewable energy, SBP demonstrated how bitcoin mining can serve as a key driver for expanding renewable energy infrastructure. This innovative approach captured the attention of global climate investors managing over $3 trillion in AUM.

SBP led critical conversations with sustainable finance leaders. Co-sponsoring the prestigious Sustainable Investment Forum alongside publicly traded Bitcoin miner MARA, SBP reinforced its commitment to aligning bitcoin mining’s environmental impact with a renewable energy future. The Forum, hosted by Climate Action and the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), brought together key decision-makers, including Norges Bank Investment Management, the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund (UNJSPF), S&P Global and other influential organizations.
