JMCEDMONTON - The Alberta Investment Management Corp. has set up a new $1-billion fund dedicated to investing in the global energy transition and decarbonization sectors.
The investment manager says the money represents new capital and investments made through the fund will be in addition to its other climate-related investments across asset classes.
