Strategies
InfrastructureInfrastructure
Our deep industry expertise allows us to execute equity investments in the harder-to-access middle-market, where there is greater value for institutional investors who have long-term investment horizons. We believe we are one of the most experienced renewable teams investing in mid-market operating and post-development wind & solar generation in North America. Leading investment team with differentiated strategy addressing North American renewable power generation: a large, growing, but still fragmented market targeting low risk, long term, stable yields with low correlation to other asset classes actively raising and deploying capital. Current Excelsior investments represent a diverse portfolio of both utility-scale and distributed generation wind and solar power plants spanning a wide range U.S. states and power markets. Renewable energy assets with long-term PPAs have historically had a very low correlation to other asset classes. Our risk diversification is by geography, resource, technology and regulatory regime - mitigating stand-alone project risks.

True Green Capital Management LLC
Westport, CT, United StatesTrue Green Capital Management LLC (“TGC”) is a specialized renewable energy infrastructure fund manager with a focus in distributed power generation in the US and Europe. The Firm is international with offices in Westport, Connecticut in the US and London in the United Kingdom.
Founded in July 2011, TGC is led by a team of professionals with a proven track record and a demonstrated capacity to originate, finance, construct, and operate distributed renewable power generation projects.
TGC believes the demand for power, the continued increase of power prices, decreasing entry costs of distributed power generation technology and the efficiency of creating and delivering price-competitive electric power at the source will continue to lead to compelling investment opportunities which provide a stable cash flow stream with low correlation to the broader markets.
TGC is currently focused on investing in the US, the United Kingdom, and the EU, which account for a notable portion of the approximately $1.5 trillion global distributed power generation market, with an emphasis on the sub-utility scale solar power segment.1 Thanks to power industry deregulation combined with rapid advancements in technology, the economics of distributed power generation, including solar and batteries, are now competitive with traditional electricity generation sources. In many US states and key European jurisdictions, it represents one of the few sources of new power generation infrastructure that can be added to the power network quickly, reliably, and cost efficiently.
To date, TGC has invested into a distributed solar power generation portfolio across 18 US states, the United Kingdom and France, delivering clean, renewable energy. US states include California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia.

Founded in 2009, Schroders Greencoat has built a reputation for unwavering delivery of our investment propositions, as well as for innovation – our offerings have become the model for an entire industry sector. Our investments span the globe, with local expertise in the Europe, the UK and the US, and are managed across a range of publicly listed vehicles*, private market pooled funds, co-investment vehicles and Separate Managed Accounts.
Renewable infrastructure is a multi-trillion dollar global sector that will grow by more than $100 billion a year over the next decade. Utilities, energy companies and infrastructure developers will build out the majority of this transition, but the scale of capital involved will require significant private financing. There exists a very large and growing pool of capital which is keen to own and operate these assets, but lacks the inhouse technical skills and sector expertise to manage the investments independently. Our purpose is to bridge this gap, by acting as a solution provider for investors, and providing the partnership, financial, technical and operational expertise to deliver secure incomes for our clients.
Acquired by Schroders plc in 2022, Schroders Greencoat is the fourth pillar of the group's private markets investment business, Schroders Capital.
