"We responsibly steward our investor's capital while supporting decarbonization efforts and reducing our collective carbon footprint."

Our renewable energy and decarbonization investment deals offer compelling risk/reward profiles while simultaneously helping to make the planet cleaner and safer for generations to come.

TEI Renewable Energy is an affiliate of Time Equities, Inc. ("TEI"), a diversified investment, development, asset/property management, and alternative energy company that has been in business for more than 55 years.

In 2007, TEI established its Department of Sustainability in an effort to introduce energy efficiencies and reduce the overall carbon footprint of its real estate portfolio. Through energy and water efficiency upgrades, the installation of building control systems, solar PV installations, recycling programs, EV charging stations and more, TEI was able to lower its carbon footprint and decrease the operational expenses of its properties by 15 - 20% while gaining a wealth of knowledge and experience in the energy sector in the process.

Through the conceptualization, execution and ongoing oversight of these initiatives, TEI has gained broad knowledge and deep experience in various facets of the energy industry. This knowledge and experience facilitated the creation of a new entity - TEI Renewable Energy.

With widespread decarbonization and energy transition efforts becoming more prevalent around the globe, the renewable energy sector and related fields have benefitted from a groundswell of newfound investor appetite.

This is a uniquely fortuitous time for TEI to rapidly grow its investment activities within the realm of renewables and decarbonization. There is a vast opportunity to allocate capital to deals that will offer compelling risk/reward profiles while simultaneously helping to make the planet cleaner and safer for generations to come.
