Brookfield Renewable Partners is engaged in owning a portfolio of renewable power generating facilities primarily in North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe, India and China. Co. invests in renewable assets directly, as well as with institutional partners, joint venture partners and in other arrangements. Co.'s operations are segmented by hydroelectric, wind, solar, and energy transition (distributed generation, pumped storage, cogeneration and biomass), with hydroelectric and wind further segmented by geography (i.e., North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and Asia). The BEP YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the BEP YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether BEP YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the BEP YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
