| There is certainly a dynamic in terms of where we're seeing the pipeline shift, and in the last few years we've been very proud of our activity |
| Our success in deploying large scale capital is a testament to our track record as demonstrated by our ability to attract discretionary co-investment from some of the largest and most sophisticated investors around the world |
| We also followed up on what was a very robust year for growth with a strong first quarter, signing transactions for almost $8 billion of equity investment alongside our institutional partners, or over $1 billion net to Brookfield Renewable |
| Our business continues to exhibit strong cash flow resiliency given the diversified asset base and the ability to capture higher power prices, both through inflation linked power purchase agreements, and a robust energy price environment for our hydro assets |
| We think they're great investments and ones that we're uniquely positioned to execute |
| If we can decarbonize these platforms, it's going to dramatically enhance value because in both InterEnergy and in Origin, adding low cost clean renewables dramatically enhances the value and the cash flows of the broader platform |
| We are excited about this transaction and the potential it brings to grow our business in a highly attractive market and generate strong risk adjusted returns for our investors |
| So it's definitely predicated on the transactions we've done to date, but as we look at the pipeline going forward, it still remains very robust and we have a lot of confidence that we can continue to keep executing on some of those large chunky transactions, and therefore quite confident that we'll outperform that target that we set |
| If we can develop renewables at a fast pace at very attractive levels, it's going to drive incredible value for us within the Origin platform |
| It's a large scale transaction, it has an incredible decarbonization impact, and it's very attractive risk adjusted returns |
| Based on the positive feedback received to date, we are optimistic that the second fund will both, broaden the number of institutional partnerships, as well as provide a larger pool of capital to invest alongside, positioning us to continue to execute scale transactions at very attractive risk adjusted returns |
| Operating results reflect robust hydro generation across our portfolio, excuse me, strong year-over-year realized power pricing, high asset availability, and contributions from growth |
| We also operate essential low cost infrastructure with gross margins of over 70% that are well protected throughout the business cycle |
| Across our hydro fleet, reservoirs are generally at or above long-term averages, positioning the portfolio well for the remainder of the year |
| We are seeing more opportunities in the public markets today, potential public to privates, and then for the first time in a few years, we're beginning to see a number of very attractive opportunities to buy operating assets at very value, very attractive value entry points |
| We're thrilled about the investments we've made in investing in a lot of high quality developers, ones from the United States that are going to benefit tremendously from IRA businesses like X-Elio in Europe |
| Together with prior transactions, these investments position us to achieve and likely outperform our $6 billion to $7 billion capital deployment target over the next five years |
| The other thing I would say is, if we continue to see an exceptionally robust pipeline of very attractive high returning deals, we may look to augment our funding strategy, but that would be a good news story because of the robust pipeline of high returning accretive deals and that will obviously be subject to what the market gives us in the next 12 or 24 months |
| Our financial position also remains strong with almost $4 billion of available liquidity |
| In terms of the returns, we're still seeing very, very robust demand, particularly for high quality de-risked wind and solar assets |
| We had an excellent start to the year with strong financial results, good progress advancing our development pipeline and success with respect to our growth initiatives |
| This was a situation where we could put capital to work in a business we know better than anyone else given our existing position and double down on what we've already been a very successful investment that continues to have a strong outlook |
| Finally, going forward, we expected X-Elio to continue benefiting from robust industry tailwinds and its leadership position in most of the markets where the business is present, to further enhance its profitable growth pace while maintaining its self-funded business model |
| The business also has one of the strongest management teams out there and excellent capabilities around contracting and procurement |
| Therefore, our X-Elio investment is a great example of an opportunity where we were able to take a very strong standalone platform for all the reasons I just mentioned and add significant value through our ownership |
| And increasingly now in India, we're seeing more of a commercial and industrial contracting market develop, and that really plays to our strengths |
| We continue to see strong demand for renewable energy assets globally, and we are seeing strong interests across our capital recycling processes |
| Our balance sheet is in excellent position and our available liquidity remains robust at almost $4 billion, providing significant flexibility to fund growth and be opportunistic in the current environment |
| We believe this has also been important to prove the value that X-Elio is able to create through development, or in other words, that the business can not only grow at a fast pace, but do it at strong returns and capital |
| What attracted us originally to X-Elio was that it was a full integrated solar development platform with a global presence in key solar markets where we saw significant growth potential |

| Over the last few months, we all witnessed significant market and interest rate volatility on the back of persistent inflationary pressures and stress across the banking system |
| It's a muted impact, and that's certainly what we're seeing in our asset sale processes as well |
| And then on the pace of investment and looking at some of these large chunky deals, the next energy transition fund that you raise could be quite large, and we have seen the participation of BEP in deals come down |
| One, our target balance hasn't changed |
| These statements are subject to known and unknown risks and our future results may differ materially |
