Distributed energyinsight and capital.
Electricity demand is surging. Distributed energy is key to meeting this demand. Telos helps get more distributed energy on the grid.

We provide flexible capital alongside market insight and development. Partner with us to pull forward the value of grid service and VPP revenue, or to build out your full project capital stack.
The value of what distributed energy will earn from the grid, available today.
Grid service and VPP revenue is quickly evolving and hard to read. Telos cuts through the noise to assess and manage underwriting risk, and to finance what others see as too novel. Here’s how it works.

Distributed energy resources serve homes and businesses, but also the grid.
Batteries, HVAC, bidirectional EVs, and other emerging categories.

Customers receive backup power and/or lower costs.
Your existing lenders can often finance customer payments and other long-term contracted cash flows, but may struggle to understand emerging grid service revenue streams.

Distributed energy assets are on a once-in-a-generation growth trajectory. Revenue opportunities are in the very early stages of maturing.
That can make revenue uneven and projects difficult to finance. This is the comfort zone of Telos, underwriting this risk and partnering to advance capital where others will not.
How? The Telos team helped develop most of the distributed energy programs in the US. We know this space, because we helped build it. And, we stay involved post funding to continue the hard work to support your deployment, enrollment, and dispatch, as well as the critical ongoing policy and regulatory engagement.
Through Telos, the value flows.
