GreenBondsJustGotSmarter | Introducing the New Gold Standard in Sustainable Finance
Labels don’t build trust. Transparency does.” AnjuSharma,

ISS ESG, the sustainability-focused arm of ISS STOXX, just launched something that could change how we look at bonds — introducing the SustainabilityBondRating!
Why should the ESG world take note?
What’sNew:
🔍 DualImpact: Combines Sustainability Impact Score (aligned to SDGs, EU Taxonomy, ICMA) + ESG Risk Score for a fuller picture.
🌍 AllEyesOnGreen: Covers not just corporates but also sovereign issuers of Green, Social, Sustainability & Sustainability-linked bonds (GSSS).
⚖️ GreenOrGreenwashed? A tool that separates true impact from clever spin — vital when $5 trillion+ in GSSS bonds have already flooded the market.
📈 InvestorToolKit: Tailored for the 68% of institutional investors who integrate ESG into their portfolios.
⚙️ GlobalAlignment: Built on globally accepted frameworks — ICMA Principles, EU Taxonomy, and UN SDGs — making it easier to benchmark and trust.
Why it matters:
Because the bond between sustainability and capital markets needs more accountability.
Greenwashing isn’t just noise — it’s a $1.5 trillion challenge.
This new rating is not just a label — it’s a litmustest for integrity in sustainable investing.
👏 Kudos to the ISS ESG team for bringing transparency, clarity, and impact integrity to the GSSS bond universe!

Gruner Renewable Energy’s turnover is expected to surge from ₹100 crore to ₹4,000 crore.
The growth is partly due to an order for 11 compressed biogas (CBG) plants from Reliance Industries.
The first CBG plant, located in Navsari, can produce 44 tonnes of biogas per day from biomass feedstock.
Reliance Industries aims to eliminate its carbon footprint by 2035 with a ₹75,000 crore green energy plan.
