We see a big opportunity to deploy an investment model NGP has honed over the last three decades into these attractive clean energy subsectors.” The strategy partners with management teams, often at the earliest stages of company formation, and provides capital and support to help build energy transition platforms. The group aims for $50 to $150 million per investment. NGP SRA has already closed investments in three platform companies: Segue Renewables II, which invests in development-stage energy transition projects and the infrastructure enabling them; Cloverleaf Infrastructure, which collaborates with regional U.S. utilities and data center operators to deliver scalable clean electricity through strategic investments in transmission, grid interconnection, land, onsite power generation and electricity storage, and; CO280 Solutions, which partners with pulp and paper companies to develop, finance, own and operate carbon removal projects to deliver verifiable, and affordable carbon removal credits to the voluntary carbon market.
