Investment thesis

Saxovent invests in and develops innovative, climate-friendly projects that deliver measurable sustainability impact. As a pioneer of wind energy, the firm focuses on renewable energy — wind, solar, real estate, and agriculture — and finances forward-looking, economically viable companies aiming to make a real difference on climate change. It develops and operates wind farms as an independent power producer and works through a network of regional and international partnerships. The firm targets maximum CO2 avoidance and quantifies the potential greenhouse gas reduction of each project. It offers services to mid-sized companies, financing partners, startups, and talent, and has expanded into Eastern Europe, France, and the United States.
