US Renewables Group (USRG) was formed in 2003 to assemble and manage a portfolio of investments in renewable power generation assets (including biomass, geothermal, landfill methane, solar, wind and other projects), clean fuel assets (including ethanol and biodiesel projects), renewable power and clean fuel infrastructure opportunities, and late-stage enabling technology projects. US Renewables Group’s primary focus is on the acquisition of operating assets, and on a selective basis, investment in development projects or expansion opportunities at existing renewable energy facilities. The firm’s investment approach takes advantage of opportunities throughout the renewable energy value chain. Energy efficiency and carbon abatement projects make up the remaining energy infrastructure focus areas.
