Energea Launches Private Wealth Channel Offerings for Energy Infrastructure Investing

Energea, a global leader in solar energy infrastructure investing, has launched new share classes for its existing strategies in the private wealth channel. The company said the new offerings are intended to make energy infrastructure investing more accessible to financial advisers, broker-dealers and wealth platforms, as well as their clients.
Designed to provide long-term income streams and backed by institutional-grade underwriting, the Energea global infrastructure portfolios are Regulation D offerings under U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 506(c). Available for accredited investors and their advisers, the offerings provide access to a diversified portfolio of global energy infrastructure assets through multiple share classes with different adviser compensation models.
“After building a successful investment track record with both retail and institutional investors, we’re thrilled to be able to open our strategies up to the private wealth channel,” said Mike Silvestrini, co-founder and managing partner at Energea. “Over the years, we have seen strong interest from financial advisers and wealth platforms and we are excited that they can now share in our mission to drive innovation, growth, and impact in the renewable energy sector.”
Since inception, Energea’s portfolios have generated a 12% realized internal rate of return for investors. Since 2020, the company has invested nearly $500 million in energy infrastructure.
Energea’s current investment opportunities include the following strategies:
- Community Solar in Brazil: a portfolio of solar plants serving energy to thousands of small businesses and household subscribers;
- Solarize Africa: an assortment of rooftop projects and utility-scale projects that employ a range of risk mitigating strategies; and
- Solar in the USA: a portfolio of solar projects backed by long-term energy contracts with U.S. businesses and utility companies.
“As portfolio models evolve beyond a traditional mix of stocks and bonds, infrastructure strategies like ours have emerged as a core allocation for investors seeking stable, long-term returns,” said Chris Sattler, co-founder and managing partner of Energea. “With inflation-linked cash flows, low volatility, and strong downside protection, infrastructure is no longer a niche alternative, but rather a strategic building block. We look forward to working with our new distribution partners in the private wealth channel and helping their clients reach their objectives.”
Class A shares are open to all investors, while additional share Classes B, C, D, and I are reserved for registered investment advisers, broker-dealers, and other wealth professionals. The minimum investment for Classes A, B, and C are $25,000. Classes D and I are $50,000 and $100,000, respectively. Other differences across the share classes, according to Energea, include fee schedules, commission structures, and platform-access options.
“Energea has always been a technology-first investment manager,” said Gray Reinhard, managing partner and chief technology officer at Energea. “We’ve built a platform that delivers real-time performance data, transparent share pricing, and automated compliance—capabilities that are rare in private markets. By integrating operational data directly from our projects, we provide investors and advisors with a level of insight and accessibility that sets a new standard for private infrastructure investing.”
Energea is a U.S.-based renewable energy investment platform that connects individual investors with solar projects worldwide. Since launching in 2020, Energea has raised over $450 million and generated a 12% realized IRR for investors.
