SET Venture Partners

edit

SET Venture Partners is the management company of the Sustainable Energy Technology (SET) Fund. The fund’s key objective is to invest in innovative companies actively developing new technologies for the production of clean energy, alternative fuels, CO2 reduction and energy savings.

Founded in 2007, SET VP secured € 50 million from investors Delta N.V. and Essent N.V., two major energy companies in The Netherlands. These investors provide SET VP also with a very unique insight into markets, technologies, research and testing, which in turn offers strategic benefits to the cleantech companies backed by the Fund.

SET VP is “powered” by Canadian-based VC firm Chrysalix Energy and Dutch-based Robeco Institutional Asset Management. They support the management company by sharing their extensive knowledge and experience in the supply of sustainable energy and innovative technologies. Combined with a strong and experienced management team, SET VP is well equipped to identify, finance and develop highly profitable and innovative growth business in the renewable energy sector.
