Much has changed since Technology Partners' first foray into clean tech in the early 1990s when the sector was branded "alternative energy," considered by most to be nothing more than pet projects for environmentalists. Over the past decade and a half, clean tech has emerged as a key driver of global economic growth and has become one of venture capital's fastest growing investment categories.

  • Energy 2050: Making the Transition to a Secure Low-Carbon Energy System

    Updated: 2010-12-21 10:00:00
    The United Kingdom is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050, a target that will only be achieved by transforming the way that energy is supplied and used. At the same time there are anxieties about the security of energy provision in terms of European dependency on natural gas and the reliability of electricity supply. This book explores in detail those factors which could help or hinder the attainment of the UK's climate change targets, and how these factors interact with the parallel objective of maintaining a robust and secure energy system.

  • Why are spot market and long-term SRECs priced differently?

    Updated: 2010-12-13 17:32:54
    There are a few reasons why multi-year contract rates are initially lower than spot market rates, and they relate to SREC buyers appetite to buy SRECs. In virtually all cases, SREC buyers (utilities and energy suppliers) will contract for lower prices per SREC for multi-year agreements than they will pay on today’s spot market. This is because: (1) They expect that they will not need to buy SRECs in the future. (2) They expect that they can buy SRECs at lower costs in the future. (3) They want to wait and see what happens to requirements and prices in future years.
