Our governance

Our executive committee

A team of experienced managers ensures Boralex’s success. We are proud to present our key management personnel.

Making exemplary management a shared value

Over the years, Boralex has built its reputation on transparency, excellence in business ethics, recognition of stakeholder interests and respect for rights and freedoms. The elements of governance are essential to the success of our corporate strategy and represent an opportunity, since they enable us to position ourselves as a reliable, credible and respectful developer, operator and partner, as well as an employer of choice.

For a number of years now, CSR-related indicators have been incorporated into the short-term incentive plans of our corporate executives, notably in terms of OHS, female representation in management positions and performance in certain external CSR referents (which includes a climate component). In 2023, the annual appraisal form was revised, among other things to detail the CSR elements that form part of the culture and behaviors expected of managers. In this way, all our managers are assessed on the integration of CSR issues within their teams.

Our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors combines our shareholders’ interests with the realization of our mission. 

Communication and Engagement with Shareholders

Our board of directors believes that interaction with shareholders is a good governance practice and promotes greater transparency. Shareholder Engagement Principles were adopted on February 27, 2020, to outline how shareholders may communicate directly with our board of directors if they wish to discuss or meet with the chair of the board on governance matters such as our corporate governance practices, compensation of our directors or officers and succession planning. 

Shareholders may contact our board of directors directly at conseil_administration@boralex.com.

Please see our Shareholder Engagement Principles.

Setting an example in governance 

At the heart of our Board of Directors: exemplary, CSR-focused governance focused on CSR. 

Our 2024 CSR Report

Incorporation of CSR and Climate Considerations into Management Compensation 

In line with our practices in previous years, CSR indicators relating to occupational health and safety, female representation in management positions and GHG emissions reduction were once again included in short-term compensation schemes for senior executives in 2024. 

Board of Directors Mandate and Diversity 

The mandate of the Board of Directors includes responsibility for monitoring specific risks, such as those related to climate, biodiversity, ethics, and health and safety, as well as the enterprise risk management framework. 

Accordingly, the Board is responsible for the following:

  • Assessing CSR strategy, performance and risks using tools such as biodiversity-related financial reporting
  • Examining and approving the corporate CSR strategy, as well as our positioning with regard to ESG factors
  • Monitoring environmental performance, compliance and risks, including but not limited to overall impact, GHG emissions, climate change, biodiversity and resource use
