Hart Energy Taps Clear Rating as Analytics and Technology Provider for its ESG Awards

Date:

HOUSTON, Sept. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Hart Energy has selected Clear Rating, LLC (Clear Rating) a valuation, ESG and digital securities rating advisory and analytics firm, as the official ESG analytics and technology provider for the 2021 Hart Energy ESG Awards. Clear Rating specializes in private securities and portfolio valuation, ESG financial and assessment reviews, and digital securities ratings. 

Clear Rating will provide assessments on ESG award nominees using its proprietary ranking and rating framework which incorporates industry benchmarks and subsector specifics. Final assessments will be used by Hart Energy’s expert panel to determine recipients of Hart Energy ESG Awards. Honorees will be recognized at Hart Energy’s first in-person Energy ESG Conference November 29, 2021, in Houston.

“Energy companies are instituting best practices to ensure production is more environmentally benign — and they are becoming better corporate citizens along the way. They don’t often get credit for their work in these areas,” said Len Vermillion, Hart Energy’s editorial director. “We created the Energy ESG Awards to give their progress much deserved recognition.  Measuring ESG progress is a complex endeavor, so we are thrilled to partner with Clear Rating, whose expertise will help ensure high standards for the awards.”

Clear Rating’s energy experience combined with its unique aptitude for ESG risk assessment provides a solid foundation for analyzing energy issues, understanding the criteria, and proving energy sector methodologies. Clear Rating Founder James C. Row witnessed the effects of poor corporate governance and ill-advised regulatory/governmental policies firsthand at the World Bank and as a senior executive at several oil & gas and power companies. 

“In my experience the long-term effects of corporate governance, good or bad, always make their way to the surface.  That makes it imperative to align incentives, goals, and strategy in a way that creates positive sustainable environmental and social governance practices,” Row said. “Energy companies face difficult financial decisions, intense scrutiny from stakeholders, and at times nonsensical regulatory or legislative policies. Any of these can create unintended consequences for positive ESG efforts.”
