In operation since 1994, we are attracted to long term ethical and sustainable investment. Our current focus is on research and development into renewable energy technology and innovation. We are seeking progressive, practical and sustainable solutions.
The world uses twice as much energy today than it did 50 years ago, and is forecast to use twice as much energy again by the middle of the century. Growth in energy supply is a leading contributor to economic growth and quality of life.
More energy to more people means more happiness!
We follow the following guidelines when allocating resources towards Research & Investment;
Environment
The fact of the matter is that fossil fuels cause pollution (emissions), and pollution in high concentrations are both harmful to health and the environment. Relatively speaking, renewable fuel sources do not pollute. Whether you believe in man-made climate change or not, it is irrefutable that there is clear benefit in adopting renewable energy solutions. It is vital that we strike the right balance between conventional & renewable generation all around the world.
Renewable energy technologies are clean sources of energy that have a much lower environmental impact than conventional (or fossil fuel) energy technologies. Energy for generations to come, renewable energy will not run out, other sources of energy are finite and will eventually be depleted. Can't dismiss the transition of energy supply, are there solutions that complement each other, fossil fuel and renewable sources that complement each other.
We seek investment for solutions that have a low impact on the environment. The focus is on low emission technologies and renewable fuel sources.
Economic
Energy supply that is economic, a long-term low cost of energy. We consider the whole picture from generation, transmission and supply. Think big to access economies of scale, and think long-term for the benefit of generations to come.
Practical
Consider the relative value of controllable energy over intermittent generation and the contribution towards grid security and reliability. Most people don't want to think about energy needs and have it impact their lifestyle, a bigger and better solution will have a lower impact on lifestyle and lead towards easier implementation, adoption and acceptance. We should aim for outcomes that allow families and communities to focus on the 'household' budget as opposed to worrying about the supply and management of their energy needs.
Independence
Solutions that enhance energy independence as opposed to building further dependence. Local regions should invest in their energy dependence and access the direct benefits. This has wide ranging benefits and avoids issues such as disruption to oil/fuel supplies and potential conflicts.
Security & Safety
Any solution must be safe and not harmful to life.
Local Jobs and Economies
Most renewable energy investments are spent on materials and workmanship to build and maintain the facilities, rather than on costly energy imports. This means your energy dollars stay 'home' to create and support local jobs and fuel local economies. We advocate for any projects to support the local communities where they are being established.
Global Issue
Energy supply, pollution and climate change is a global issue. The behaviour of one region affects all regions as we all share in the health of our planet and atmosphere. We strive for a proactive approach to implementing solutions for mutual benefit and contribute towards global implementation. The benefits of our solutions will be reinvested locally towards local economies and jobs, whilst also supporting reinvestment and further roll-out to other regions.
We are currently seeking investment and global associations to contribute towards project development, design studies and the procurement of expertise.
