Taking on unsolved problems in cleantech financing since 2009
Solve REA helps companies better understand the Cleantech sector, working with investors to evaluate opportunities, and solution providers to craft their project finance offerings.
We leverage our expertise at the intersection of Clean Tech, advanced project finance modeling, and blockchain/cryptocurrency. Solve REA draws on years of relevant experience in the trenches to provide insight and action to organizations now entering or already active in this emerging Distributed Energy/Distributed Finance (DenFin) space.
We are investors, startup veterans, management consultants, bankers, and policy nerds. Our financial modelling, deal diligence, strategic planning, research, education, and understanding will take your group where it needs to go. As a start-up looking to leverage the latest project finance business models, an investor needing to expand their scope and capabilities, a public-sector group considering their next program, or a regulated utility wanting to understand the future, Solve REA will provide the support you need.

Areas of Practice
Financial product development
Building first-of-their kind project financing products is one of the things we do best. We serve agile startups looking for new ways to leverage their technology or ideas; large utilities building out their new financing programs for solar, efficiency, storage or vehicles; and established financial services companies looking to expand their offerings into Cleantech. In addition to extensive work with Solar and commercial Energy Efficiency, we have built successful new product offerings for distributed wind, single family energy efficiency, and biofuels.
emerging energy/resource assets
Part of what makes Solve so different is that we haven't just worked on basic solar energy transactions. We've taken an active part in making existing energy and resource assets become viable investments. In addition to our intense experience with distributed wind, single family energy efficiency, and biofuels, we have worked with vertical farming, water resources, electric vehicles, charging stations, and energy storage.
due diligence & Underwriting
Evaluating opportunities, structuring projects, managing risk, and doing deals is core to the work of Solve. We work with individuals, family offices, Cleantech investment funds, specialty finance shops, banks, and insurers -- from opportunity stage to closing. We've seen dozens of transactions, and have the skills to help you safely see each one through.
distributed energy
Distributed assets are what we work best with. We believe the energy and resource future is decentralized, with more types of resource technologies deployed in more ways, and in more places. We know these technologies, their business models, and their potential.
Models & research
Often, businesses or investors simply want to learn more, build out a financial structure, or answer a question analytically. Solve specializes in answering these custom questions, brining our intellect, analytical rigor, and experience to bear on every custom question.
distributed finance
As the alternative currency market matures and utilities continue to pursue the de-coupling of their business models, opportunities arise for new ways to structure the exchange of resources for value. Real assets such as solar PV capacity, water resources, and charged batteries could provide stable backing for this exchange. At the same time, blockchain and other distributed transaction technologies hold the promise of being able to remove the need for trusted intermediaries, allowing producer and consumer to transact more directly. Solve is actively exploring opportunities in this space, and is available to assist those firms looking to better understand this area.
