2GreenEnergy in New York City — Discussing Clean Energy Projects with Private Equity Firms

I’m headed to New York City today for a series of four meetings—two of which are with heavyweights in bringing equity financing to clean energy projects, and have expressed interest in some of the business plans that I’ve sent them. I’m starting the day at Denham Capital, a global energy and commodities private equity firm, who’s taken major positions in 40 projects over the last 15 years, investing $3.1 billion in the process.

Unfortunately, per my conversations with them, nothing I have is perfect for them (though some of my projects are actually very close). But, even though I don’t have a live deal on the table there, I feel I’m knocking on the door, and since I was in The City, I thought I’d drop by and introduce myself.

Now, it’s on to the Flatiron district for an introduction to the folks at ThinkGreen. I’m really looking forward to this one.
