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.
