In this episode, Becky speaks with Tabitha Gould and Isobel Annan from Burges Salmon and Owen Collins from Matheson. They discuss Ayshe’s Clause, a clause which…

  • Slots into: power purchase agreements, heads of terms, design and build contracts (including FIDIC or JCT contracts), or supply agreements.
  • Tackles the climate issue of: high emissions and human rights abuses in renewable energy supply chains.
  • Creates a solution by: providing transparency to parties in those supply chains, enabling them to choose and use renewable energy assets (solar panels, wind turbines etc) with lower carbon emissions and to eradicate forced labour and modern slavery.

For an explanation of what the clause does, skip to 12:58. For tips on how to negotiate this clause into a contract, go to 14:16.
