We accept the findings from the PBO's reports. As I said in my opening remarks, we have over $18 billion, to date, in investment commitments. In the report, the PBO also acknowledged that we would reach $37 billion in financial closes by 2029-30. That's above the $35-billion appropriation that was initially approved in 2017.
You have to recognize that, as we deploy capital, we provide capital to projects, generally, over an availability period that will, on average, be around five years. As projects are built, our capital gets deployed over that time. In identifying that gap, the PBO report doesn't necessarily recognize the difference between when capital is committed on reaching financial close and when capital is deployed over the life cycle of a project. As I said, this generally takes five or six years, in terms of project construction.
