RenewableTech Ventures

RenewableTech Ventures is a cleantech-focused venture capital firm founded in 2009 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, positioned as the leading clean-technology venture investor in the Rocky Mountain corridor of Canada and the United States. The firm targets early and growth-stage innovations across renewable energy, clean technology, energy conservation and efficiency, green materials, and adjacent sectors — with declared coverage spanning transportation, energy, manufacturing, infrastructure, advanced materials, information technology, and agriculture. RenewableTech is led by Managing Director Todd Stevens, formerly the founder and managing director of EPIC Ventures and manager of the Zions Bank Venture Capital Department, with a career spanning six venture funds and more than 100 portfolio company investments. The team brings 40-plus years of combined experience across cleantech, venture capital, operations, and entrepreneurship, supporting founders with capital, active board engagement, market intelligence, and an international network of industry contacts and co-investors. Fund I was raised in October 2011. Geographic investment emphasis is concentrated in the US Rocky Mountain corridor — Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming — and western Canada including Alberta and British Columbia. A named portfolio company is Solid Carbon Products, which has developed a proprietary process to transform CO2 emissions into high-value industrial materials. No new publicly documented investments or fund announcements have appeared in 2024 or 2025, suggesting the firm is focused on portfolio management and exit realization. RenewableTech's Rocky Mountain geography-first thesis was distinctive at its 2009 launch — at a time when most cleantech capital was concentrated on the coasts — and its focus on the carbon-heavy energy states of the Mountain West gave it a relevant vantage point for energy-transition investing.
