In August 2022, SETF acquired a 100MW portfolio of front-of-the-meter battery storage projects in south Texas.

SUSI stated: “SETF’s investment strategy leverages SUSI’s extensive energy transition sector expertise to advance the growth of asset investment platforms and management-led businesses.

“The investment in Encore expands SETF’s diversified and growing portfolio, which covers investments from renewable energy production over energy efficiency to energy storage and integrated customer energy solutions in the US, Europe, Chile and Australia.

“Given the continued deployment progress through the existing platforms, and further attractive near-term investment opportunities in the pipeline, SUSI is looking to further expand SETF’s capital base in 2023.”

In April 2023, SUSI announced an investment in solar projects developer Asia Clean Capital Vietnam, which was established by the founders of Asia Clean Capital.

The investment was made through SUSI Partners’ Asia Energy Transition Fund.
