New Energy Capital
VC Fund
Hanover, Germany
New Energy Capital is a VC fund in Hanover focused on Renewable Energy and Solar. New Energy Capital focuses on providing equity to small and mid-sized projects utilizing proven clean energy, clean water, combined heat and power, storage, and waste management technologies. Over the coming decade, investment opportunities in these target sectors will be driven by resource constraints, international energy demands, environmentalmandates, and emerging technologies. Many of these projects, and the companies that develop and operate them, will require between $10 and $200 million of total capital -- a size that is underserved in the financial markets.NEC deploys its transactional experience, professional skills, and network of industry and government contacts to assist developers with complex transactions that must integrate a range of regulatory, environmental, financial, technical, legal and project management expertise. Mitigating project risk is a core focus of the NEC strategy. Portfolio projects will incorporate only commercially proven technologies and will employ active measures to mitigate project risks through contracted sales of energy and products, secure sources of feedstock, and strategies to minimize the impact of commodity volatility.
