Track Record
The World Leader in Micro-Generation Investments
Aretê Corporation has been managing venture capital funds since
1985. The five original Utech Funds and the Micro-Generation Technology
Fund have now been completed as of 2007. During this 22-year period, the
Aretê team invested in nearly eighty companies, of which 22 were
related to micro-generation. Some of the more prominent among those companies
are:
- Ballard Power Systems* (PEM fuel cell)
- Astropower* (photovoltaics, acquired by GE)
- American Superconductor* (HTSC)
- Superconductivity, Inc. (micro-SMES; acquired by ASC)
- Evergreen Solar* (photovoltaics)
- StatPower (inverters; acquired by Xantrex*)
- Northern Power Systems (wind systems)
- Proton Energy Systems* (PEM electrolyzers)
- Capstone Turbine* (micro-turbines)
- Beacon Power* (flywheels)
- Hydrogenics* (PEM fuel cells and test stations)
- H2Gen Innovations, Inc. (steam methane reformer)
- Angstrom Power, Inc. (micro fuel cells)
*Public Company
We believe that this investment track record establishes our position
as among the world leading investors in the micro-generation and alternative
energy space. That track record is now being enhanced through investments
being made by our newest fund, SC Green Tech Ventures.
