The drive to lower carbon output, though still frustrated by political posturing, has at the very least become a significant consideration by governments around the world. Industrialized as well as developing countries are looking for viable and politically acceptable ways to minimize carbon output as a necessary first step in dealing with global warming. In response, the worldwide business community is developing and selling green technologies as a way of cashing in on what is now being seen as an economic sea level change, not to be confused with the threat of physical sea level change that is helping to drive the demand for low carbon alternatives.
An innovative business model being used by Low Carbon Technologies International takes unique advantage of the pressure for low carbon solutions by focusing on asset enhancement. The company is focused on acquiring profitable businesses, but also acquires real estate assets throughout the U.S. and Mexico. They currently control over $4 billion in real estate assets by way of long term leases or direct ownership. Besides real estate, sectors targeted include energy, mining, construction, environmental, and technology.
All of this has itself been a major factor in growing shareholder equity to over $100 million in the space of three years. But to this they have added the element of clean energy technologies which they have also been acquiring. By combining their clean energy technologies with their business and real estate assets, they are able to leverage their investments, increasing company and shareholder value.
The company states that their current clean-tech projects are each expected to generate annual returns in excess of $20 million, with a combined total of $1.3 billion over the life of the projects. Low Carbon Technologies expects to grow its enterprise value to over $1 billion within 5 years.
