FinTech Pioneers go all in on CleanCapital

I’m excited to announce that CleanCapital crossed another major milestone by recently closing Series A financing as part of an ongoing capital raise. The new capital will allow us to implement our technology roadmap, scale operations, grow our team, and expand opportunities for clean energy investing.

CleanCapital is committed to attracting new capital to clean energy. With years of clean energy finance experience, it became painfully clear to me that inefficient capital flows were holding back clean energy. We knew there was a better way. CleanCapital was founded to leverage technology to create a lower cost, more transparent flow of capital from investors to clean energy projects and accelerate clean energy development.

In our first year, CleanCapital filled a void in the clean energy marketplace by providing liquidity to numerous project owners, acquiring more than 20 MW of operating solar projects. We received funding from industry leaders like John Hancock Life Insurance and Generate Capital to finance numerous assets. In 2017 and beyond, we will expand into new clean energy asset classes and create more financing solutions to grow the sector.

Today, we are announcing a big step towards that goal. We are honored to welcome to CleanCapital some true fintech pioneers.
