We are all looking for new ways to invest our money.
It needs to be interesting enough that we dedicate our time and energy to it to make our investment grow. We may think about an opportunity's risk to reward ratio and choose something that we are happy to put our cash into. More and more these days, people are talking about the need for finding new ethical business ideas and models to invest their money in.

TRINE is an investment opportunity with a built-in strategy to bring clean energy to communities in African nations. There is profit here to be made by investors. Here you can profit from other people’s benefit, not off of other people's misfortune. No need to leech off of others for this business model!

Climate-kic reveals TRINE are a group of skilled and ambitious people, born our of Gothenburg Sweden that started back in 2015 as a crowdfunded concept. Since then they have excelled. Chalmers Ventures reported that they are taking in 58 million Swedish Kronor ($6.8m) with which they are planning to bring clean renewable energy to 66 million people by 2022.

Sustainable energy is the focus of their platform. A community's parameter is specified by TRINE then the Solar Photo Voltaic requirement is calculated. A project's budget is thereafter released, along with the stats of how many people that can potentially be helped along with the CO2 equivalent savings achievable after completion.

It is everyday individuals like you and I that make-up the body of investment.
TRINE have the job of doing the legwork to make sure the project gets to completion and starts performing to generate relatively affordable power for the residents, whilst paying you back your investment, with profit.

Risk is moderate to low with the biggest factors being that of locally-born issues; political or social unrest, theft or unforeseen loss of product, being the most notable to mention. But even then, project dependent, TRINE will offer a full refund on your original investment amount. How cool is that!
What you get is, in effect, a high-interest account ‘with benefits’, and none of the hassle.

Investment has a global reach. A total of over 120,000 people have, to date, invested in 13 projects fully-funded and serving customers and investors. Their current project’s investment goal is their largest budgeted at $300,000.

I love this idea! I think it’s tenacious, current, and uncomplicated. It gives a damn good go at bringing together investing, energy systems and sustainable development. I think that it’s seldom we see organisations who are truly making it work in these areas and especially from a crowdfunded beginning. TRINE are making it work.

Sure it doesn't have volatility like Bitcoin which means there are lower risks and rewards. Nor does it have the stability of H&M, but it’s a strategy lending momentum to a larger lucrative idea. It is different in concept to Indiegogo where investments, most often lead to discounts on products. It's also not like MicroVentures where investors take an equity stake in the company.
TRINE is a simple, project-on-project strategy built for the investor that can be a direct benefit to all acting agents involved.
