Investing in our energy future
The energy industry has gone through a period of huge change over the past couple of decades. 20 years ago, gas and electricity companies operated in a monopoly market and there were no commercial wind farms in operation in the UK. Yet the change in the years to come, with the introduction of smart metering and the need to decarbonise the way we generate electricity, will be even more significant.
To ensure that we are at the forefront of industry development, we have made investments in over 20 small and medium sized businesses. They provide renewable, sustainable and energy efficiency products and expertise which supports our current activity and equips us to tackle the UK’s energy future.
Investment portfolio
We invest in early-stage, near-to-market and established businesses. We sometimes invest exclusively, or co-invest with key strategic industry and financial partners.
In addition to our Perth-based investment team, we have an office in Asia which provides a gateway to the Asian markets. We welcome investment proposals from the UK, Ireland, Europe, the US and Asia.
