A 1 billion RMB ($148M USD) multi-stage Fund, established with Total Energy Ventures and Hubei High Technology Investment, investing in the Chinese energy sector. While energy demand is a global issue, China’s large and increasingly tech savvy population represents a big opportunity to scale energy technologies that will result in significant impact. Our goal is to deepen collaboration across the industry, support innovative carbon neutral solutions and fight back against climate change.
We invest in early to growth-stage startups developing new technologies and business models in the Chinese energy sector.
We back startups with a particular focus on the internet of energy, distributed energy, renewables, storage, solutions for green vehicles and low-carbon technologies.
Our initial check sizes range from 30 – 100M RMB ($4 – $14M USD). We can lead or follow and keep reserves for follow-on investments.
We help startups grow with access to Cathay’s global platform, Total’s global industry leadership as well as Hubei’s expertise in technological innovation in the field of new energy and environment innovation policy.
