Enabling the energy transition through responsible land investment
At Telios, sustainability is not an add-on; it is at the core of our business model. By financing land for solar and battery storage projects, we directly support Europe’s shift toward clean, reliable energy. Our approach ensures long-term value creation for developers, landowners, and communities.
We align our work with the objectives of the European Green Deal, the EU Renewable Energy Directive (RED III), and the EU Taxonomy for Sustainable Activities, ensuring that our investments contribute directly to Europe’s decarbonisation pathway.
Our Approach to Sustainability
Accelerating decarbonization
We partner exclusively with renewable energy developers, enabling the rapid deployment of solar and storage capacity across Europe. This supports the EU’s target of at least 42.5% renewable energy share by 2030 (RED III).
Long-term alignment
Our leases are designed for stability and fairness. Developer-friendly terms on termination, decommissioning, and community impact ensure projects remain sustainable throughout their lifetime, in line with UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and OECD Guidelines for Responsible Business Conduct.
Efficient use of land
We structure transactions that give developers flexibility to secure the right land, reduce deadlock in multi-owner projects, and unlock sites that might otherwise remain underutilised. Our approach is consistent with EU guidelines on land-use efficiency and promotes dual-use strategies such as agrivoltaics where appropriate.
Tax-efficient, fair outcomes for landowners
By structuring deals that are attractive for landowners, often with significant tax benefits, Telios reduces friction and builds trust for long-term partnerships, consistent with ESG principles of fairness and transparency.
We aim to:
Operate as a professional, transparent counterparty, aligning with SFDR (Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation) and institutional ESG standards
Expand renewable land partnerships in line with the EU Climate Law and Fit-for-55 package
Support biodiversity and responsible land use, in line with the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030 and local permitting frameworks
Monitor and report progress in line with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
