Founded in 1999 as the “Sustainable Jobs Fund,” protecting our planet is core to SJF’s strategy. Affordable, clean energy has been a long-standing focus of SJF’s investments, drawing on decades of experience and an interest in investing in the “nuts and bolts” that enable a clean transition. In the twenty-five years since our inception, the climate crisis has worsened, and SJF continues to explore new approaches to address climate change head-on, leveraging technology to build electrification solutions and rapidly scale up renewable energy.
Portfolio companies in SJF’s latest funds are facilitating the construction of utility-scale solar energy and battery storage, enabling widespread household electrification, and using AI tools to ensure nuclear power plants are run safely and efficiently.
