\nNewest addition to Alto Marketplace offers accredited investors access to a yield-generating portfolio of community solar projects in Brazil<\/i><\/p>
NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alto, a leading self-directed IRA platform bringing private markets to individual retirement portfolios, today announced a new investment opportunity with Energea, a global renewable energy developer and operator.<\/p>
\nEnergea Portfolio 2 LP (the \u201cCommunity Solar in Brazil Portfolio\u201d or \u201cthe Portfolio\u201d), which aims to provide monthly income from distributed generation community solar projects in Brazil, is now available on the Alto Marketplace, Alto\u2019s curated platform where accredited investors can discover and invest in alternative assets directly through their self-directed IRA.<\/p>
\nThe addition of Energea expands Alto Marketplace\u2019s real assets offering, giving eligible investors access to renewable energy infrastructure and long-term capital appreciation. Through Alto, investors can now access the Community Solar in Brazil Portfolio with a minimum investment of $25,000.<\/p>
\nThe Portfolio acquires and operates distributed-generation community solar projects in Brazil, generating revenue through recurring energy payments from a broad base of commercial and residential subscribers. It is backed by long-term energy supply agreements and seeks to benefit from growing electricity demand, rising utility costs, and the continued expansion of energy infrastructure.<\/p>
\nSince its inception in 2020, the Community Solar in Brazil Portfolio has delivered a realized net IRR of 14.0% and has paid monthly distributions to investors every month since its launch.1<\/sup> The portfolio\u2019s assets currently include solar installations across the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, the majority of which are actively cash flowing.<\/p> \n\u201cAlto is focused on expanding access to differentiated private market opportunities that can help investors build more resilient long-term portfolios,\u201d said Eric Satz, Founder and CEO of Alto. \u201cEnergy infrastructure is an asset class that has historically been difficult for individual investors to access, particularly within a retirement account. Through this partnership between Energea and Alto, we are making it easier for eligible investors to access a professionally managed renewable energy opportunity that combines real asset exposure with the potential for recurring income.\u201d<\/p> \nEnergea\u2019s vertically integrated platform allows for direct control across the lifecycle of its solar assets, from origination and development to energy sales, subscriber management, operations and maintenance. The company operates assets across six countries, including Brazil, the US, South Africa and Colombia, and its proprietary technology platform supports operational transparency and scale. In addition to its investment offerings for individuals, Energea has managed or partnered on energy infrastructure portfolios alongside institutional investors including BTG Pactual, Brookfield Renewable Partners, and Victory Hill Capital Partners.<\/p> \n\u201cWe founded Energea to make access to energy infrastructure investing more transparent, efficient and broadly available,\u201d said Chris Sattler, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Energea. \u201cOur partnership with Alto reflects a shared belief that investors should be able to access real asset opportunities that are tied to long-term global demand trends. Through our Community Solar in Brazil Portfolio, accredited investors can participate in contracted, revenue-generating solar assets, productive solar assets designed to generate consistent cash flow while supporting the continued buildout of energy infrastructure in the country.\u201d<\/p> \nFor RIAs and other wealth managers, the launch offers a new way to consider energy infrastructure as part of a broader alternatives allocation for their clients. The Portfolio\u2019s monthly distribution history, contracted revenue model and exposure to essential energy demand may be of interest to investors seeking differentiated sources of income outside of traditional public markets.<\/p> \nThe Community Solar in Brazil Portfolio is available now on the Alto Marketplace at http:\/\/altoira.com\/marketplace\/energea-portfolio-2-lp<\/a>.<\/p> \nAs part of the partnership launch, Alto will be hosting a webinar with Energea. Attendees will hear from Energea\u2019s Chris Sattler and Evan Deussing, CIMA, SVP of Revenue at Alto, as they cover the nuances of the investment and what investors should understand before committing capital.<\/p> \nRegistration for the webinar is available here: https:\/\/grow.altoira.com\/alto-x-energea<\/a><\/p> \nAbout Alto<\/b><\/p> \nAlto\u2019s self-directed IRA platform enables investors to diversify their retirement portfolios with alternative assets like private equity, venture capital, real estate, private credit, and more.
