Alexander Helling, the CEO of Baseload Capital says, “We’re extremely excited because this Facility enables Baseload to roll out projects faster and provide project financing to assets under development and construction. It is optimally structured for a company like Baseload with a portfolio of geothermal assets in various development phases. SEEIT is an esteemed investment company listed on the London Stock Exchange and a constituent of the FTSE 250 with a strong focus on sustainability and ESG.
