INVESTMENT THESIS
Investing to scale energy infrastructure platforms
We partner with companies where our operational expertise and industry relationships can create the most value – past the venture capital stage, where technology risk is behind them, but are too early for the lower-return profile of traditional infrastructure funds. Our investments are typically structured at the holding company, providing flexible growth capital to the platform while preserving the ability to optimize project-level financing as assets mature.
