Bridging the financing gap for distributed clean energy

Two Point O Capital was established to tackle a crucial need for flexible and efficient capital in the distributed clean energy sector. While traditional financing has supported large-scale utility projects, there remains an unmet demand of over $10 billion annually for financing distributed projects. 

Two Point O Capital’s platform is designed to address this gap by offering innovative financial solutions for projects such as solar rooftops, energy efficiency equipment, and wastewater treatment.

Purpose of fundraising

Two Point O Capital plans to use the raised capital to enhance its tech-enabled platform, which helps source, underwrite, finance, and monitor clean energy projects.

The startup aims to collaborate with various operating and financial partners to build a high-quality portfolio and manage it through its lifecycle on this platform. It also plans to use the capital to recruit top talent across various functions to further strengthen their team.

“This investment will accelerate our growth trajectory and help attract top talent across various functions to build a best-in-class team," the founders said.
