Impact Investing

Impact Investing is a socially responsible investment management approach that focuses on investing in companies making a positive impact on their communities and the planet at large. This is the essence of an investment in SynSel.

Community Resiliency: SynSel developments focus on regions that are rich in woody biomass, but often economically distressed due to nationwide downturns in traditional timber industries.

Our targeted rural communities have an existing industrial infrastructure and an idle workforce with strong motivation to welcome new developments. With our Modular Synthetic Biorefineries serving as the foundation, SynSel works with local community businesses and leaders to maximize revitalizing economic and educational opportunities.

Environmental Stewardship: SynSel partners with landowners, wood harvesters, and industry certifiers to incorporate sustainable forestry practices. Planned woodland thinning and controlled burns to remove flammable vegetation are examples of practices recommended by the Wildland Fire Leadership Council. Our goal is to help maintain thriving, resilient, and fire-adapted ecosystems within our procurement zones.

Each SynSel Modular Synthetic Biorefinery produces renewable synthetic drop-in biofuels that provide up to a 95% reduction in greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels.  In addition, organic synthetic biofuel production by-products can be used for environmentally responsible agriculture and industrial purposes.

Maximizing Returns: Sustainable wind and solar energy projects are often limited to selling power to utility companies at captive pricing. In contrast, SynSel Modular Synthetic Biorefineries present an Impact Investment option with returns based on open market sales of Synthetic Biofuels to the highest bidder.
