Invest with SAF

Sustained Ability Fund (SAF) is the dedicated capital platform within the Sustained Ability ecosystem.

(About)

SAF deploys capital
selectively into:

SAF operates independently as a capital allocator with fiduciary responsibility to investors.

Key principle:
Capital is deployed selectively, not continuously.

Revenue-generating sustainability
businesses (Growth Fund)

Ready-to-Build renewable energy
projects and platforms (Energy Fund)

(two distinct strategies under saf)

A. SAF Growth Fund 

Positioning 

Deal-by-deal minority growth equity for execution-ready sustainability companies. 

Core Characteristics

  • Revenue-generating companies only
  • Minority ownership with governance protections
  • Capital tied to defined value-creation milestones
  • Opt-in participation per transaction
  • Exit logic identified at entry

Not

  • Not a blind pool
  • Not venture-stage capital
  • Not capital-first, execution-later

Core Insight:
The gap is not access to capital. The gap is execution readiness.

B. SAF Energy Fund

Positioning 

Project and platform equity focused on Ready-to-Build (RTB) and late-stage renewable energy assets. 

Focus
RTB solar, wind, and select renewable infrastructure
Project-level equity and minority platform investments
Global opportunities where development risk is largely complete

Entry Point
Late development or RTB — immediately prior to construction or aggregation.

Value Capture:

  • Development-to-construction uplift
  • Construction de-risking
  • Portfolio aggregation premium
  • Stabilized contracted cash flow optimization

Not:

  • Not early-stage development
  • Not speculative land
  • Not merchant-only exposure without downside protection
  • Not experimental technology

Core Principle:
Capital is deployed where development risk is largely behind the asset and execution discipline drives value.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY — HOW SAF DEPLOYS CAPITAL

Overarching Rule:
Risk is addressed before deployment, not after.

Energy Fund Strategy 

  • RTB phase entry
  • Permitting substantially complete
  • Bankable technology only
  • Conservative financial modeling
  • Structured capital stack enabling construction

Growth Fund Strategy

  • Execution-ready companies
  • Capital tied to specific milestones
  • Minority governance protections
  • Operational value creation
  • Structured exits (strategic sale, sponsor recap, secondary)

UNDERWRITING FRAMEWORK — DISCIPLINE BY DESIGN

Commercial Gate

• Revenue or contracted customers (Growth)

• Signed offtakes or documented counterparties (Energy)

• Defined operating plan

• Accountable operators

• Clear unit economics or project-level modeling

• Defined use of proceeds

• Downside sensitivity analysis

• Minority protections

• Reporting and oversight rights

• Formal conflicts-of-interest policy

Deal-by-deal mechanics (growth fund focus)

  • Opportunity identified and validated (via SAL or proprietary sourcing)
  • Investment memo prepared
  • Presented to qualified investors
  • Opt-in participation per transaction
  • Capital deployed through deal-specific structure
  • Ongoing milestone-based oversight

Investors are never obligated to participate in future deals.
