Corporate Strategy

Can capitalism respond effectively to climate change? We believe so. The transformation of the world’s power systems is an ongoing process, and financial providers such as reconcept are part of the change.

According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, zero-emission energy sources will make up 60% of the installed capacity by 2040. Wind and solar will make up 64% of the 8.6 TW of new power generating capacity added worldwide over the next 25 years, and account for almost 60% of the $11.4 trillion invested.

At the same time wind and solar keep getting cheaper. While already competitive in a number of countries even without national subsidy systems, the cost of onshore wind is expected to drop 41% by 2040, driven primarily by improving capacity factors – which will reach 33% on average in 2030 and 41% in 2040. The solar experience curve also marches on, but declining technology costs are increasingly accompanied by a reduction in the cost of development, finance and operation, pushing new utility-scale solar down 60% from a $74-$220/MWh range today, to a central estimate of around $40/MWh worldwide in 2040.

In summary, investments in renewable energies open up a promising market for smart investors as well as for project developers. Most notably because they are a genuinely assets-based investment opportunity.

We enable investors to participate in the development of renewable energies, by offering financial products that represent attractive and genuinely assets-based investment opportunities. Our successful business model as an independent issuer and asset manager of sustainable capital investments is combined with own international project development in the field of renewable energies (RE) with projects in Germany, Finland and Canada.

At the same time, we partner with project developers as a target-oriented collaboration associate. We partner with projects in various stages, including those which are already operational, under construction, in ready-to-build status or under development. reconcept is one of the few investment houses that offers own capital to bridge the financing in the development phase. Furthermore, we provide projects with equity and debt financing. 

We understand the crucial importance of robust framework conditions. That’s why we preferrably invest in countries that are top-rated, economically and politically stable, as well as which have a strong and reliable legal system. We choose countries whose governments have elaborated long-term goals for renewable energies including attractive and secure feed-in tariff systems. Our current target markets are Germany, Canada and Finland.
