This fund gives investors access to the companies leading the way in the global clean energy transition. Some of these companies are directly involved with clean energy production, and others manufacture technology and infrastructure to drive this production.
Investing in this fund grants access to a passive investment focussed on a sustainable thematic sector.
This ETF focuses on companies primarily involved in clean energy production and infrastructure. These companies operate across a range of sectors — most notably: utilities, technology and industrials.
Companies are weighted in the index using a market-cap weighted system. In simple terms, larger companies with more publicly traded shares, get a bigger share. Alongside this, companies need to meet eligibility criteria set by BlackRock to be deemed suitable for this Clean Energy ETF.
This is primarily a thematic fund, as it targets a specific investment theme. It does track an index, making it a passively managed fund, but its index is rule-based, rather than tracking a specific section of the market (like the S&P 500).
Thematic investments don’t tend to give broad market exposure on their own, so should form part of a diverse portfolio.

Clean energy plays a key role in the global transition away from fossil fuels. While no investment is guaranteed, investors could include clean energy as part of a diversified portfolio aligned with long-term sustainability trends.
This fund combines ESG and thematic investing, targeting companies that meet sustainability criteria, and are primarily involved with the clean energy transition.
Yes, this ETF distributes income as dividends. It collects these dividends from the clean energy companies it holds and typically pays them out to investors twice per year. Dividend amounts can vary depending on the performance and policies of the companies within the fund.
Like any sector-specific investment, clean energy ETFs can experience periods of volatility. Risks include changes in government policy, supply chain constraints, rising costs, or competition from other energy sources. Diversification and a long-term perspective can help manage these risks.
