ABOUT
GRIPS

We bring CO2 reduction to places
where it really matters.

Clean energy and economic growth for emerging countries – that’s our mission.

GRIPS Energy is a renewable energy investor and contractor (IPP/ESCO). We substitute fossil-based electricity supply with reliable, affordable, and pre-financed renewables-based systems for companies in emerging markets. Our solutions are vendor neutral and technology agnostic in order to design and build power systems based on our customers’ specific requirements. Our goal is to foster economic growth and contribute to CO2 reduction worldwide, for which we won the 2016 Finance for Resilience (FiRe) Award sponsored by Bloomberg New Energy Finance. 

Our offer: easy renewable energy access for commercial and industrial companies

GRIPS gives its customers easy and risk-reduced access to renewable energies based on pre-financed contracting models. GRIPS finances, owns and operates the assets, to enable a maximum renewable energy share for its customers.
