Introducing UpGrid Capital: A New Partner in renewable Energy investment
Today, I’m proud to announce the launch of UpGrid Capital LLC, a modern real estate investment and capital firm built to give landowners more control, provide developers with reliable partners, and connect high-quality projects to institutional capital.
For years, the clean-energy industry has been full of good opportunities that fall apart for the wrong reasons: unclear communication with landowners, slow developer timelines, interconnection uncertainty, and a lack of consistent investment partners. I founded UpGrid Capital to change that.
Our Mission
UpGrid Capital empowers landowners to unlock the value of their property through access to capital, strategic partnerships, and intelligent reinvestment opportunities. We connect landowners and renewable energy developers with the financial tools and investors needed to transform passive land income into diversified, high-performing assets, creating lasting wealth while accelerating the development of renewable energy & infrastructure projects.
What We Do
Lease & Land buyouts that allow landowners to convert future payments into meaningful, immediate value.
Partnerships with developers who need qualified sites, strong landowner relationships.
Capital alignment with REITs, infrastructure funds, and long-term investors seeking stable, inflation-protected assets.
Transparent guidance for landowners who want clarity, not pressure.
Why This Company Exists
After years developing and acquiring land for renewable projects across multiple markets, one thing became clear: Landowners want trusted partners. Developers want consistency. Investors want reliability. Few companies sit at the intersection of all three, and even fewer communicate clearly or move with urgency. UpGrid Capital was created to fill that gap with a higher standard.
Our Vision
To build the nation’s most trusted platform for transforming renewable energy land assets into generational wealth. By connecting landowners, developers and capital. UpGrid Capital envisions a future where every landowner can diversify their holdings, accelerate financial independence, and actively participate in the growth of a sustainable energy economy.
What’s Ahead
Our initial rollout focuses on:
Minnesota & New York where demand is strong and landowner value is high.
Strategic developer alignments for solar, battery energy storage, and emerging infrastructure opportunities.
Packaging our first assets for REIT, fund, and institutional investment channels.
This is just the beginning. As we grow, we’ll expand into new states, new asset classes, and new opportunities to help landowners and developers unlock real value.
A Final Word
The clean-energy transition moves fast, but the people at the center of it deserve a partner who moves with precision, integrity, and intention.
That’s the foundation of UpGrid Capital.
Thank you for being here from the start!
