Blackstone is designing a carbon footprinting process for investments in which it has majority ownership and board control, “which is expected to launch in 2022”, according to a document released yesterday.
“The carbon accounting system, for Blackstone and our portfolio, is expected to provide guidance and support for companies and assets to prepare a carbon footprint and share that information with Blackstone,” the firm said.

It details the growth of Blackstone’s ESG team: the firm has added 11 people this year, a number that does not include the firm’s incoming ESG head Jean Rogers.
