Clean and Renewable Fuels
Oil and gas will be around for a very long time. Besides energy, it is used in over 66,000 products. Therefore, let’s explore and encourage solutions to make it cleaner and reduce sulfur and CO2 emissions. Clean fuels such as propane, natural gas, biofuels, and hydrogen are essential. It's critical to have an experienced operator. Long-term contracts are vital. Location is key; the facility should have access to roads, rail, and docks for ships or barges, utilizing non-traditional financing structures when necessary.
MIDSTREAM
Have funding sources for midstream assets such as terminals and pipelines. Long-term contracts are essential as is location. The facility must have access to roads, rail, and docks for ships or barges.
Real Estate
Have funding source that is looking to acquire medical office buildings and surgical centers. Minimum of 15,000 sq. ft. and minimum of $10,000,000 and up with a target of $25,000,000 to $50,000,000. Prefer clinical space with an anchor tenant that is a health system or large physician group. Will look at inpatient rehabilitation facilities. Can develop medical office buildings and help program the building for health systems. I also have funding sources for apartment buildings and senior living facilities, warehouses and more.
Energy and Data Centers
Using AAC for the buildings will save 40% of the energy costs. AAC is 25% lighter than traditional concrete yet it can withstand winds of 200 mph. With an exclusive additive, the fire resistance increases from 2,500 degrees to 6,500 degrees. 50% lower embodied carbon than traditional concrete, it qualifies for IRA tax benefits.
Intermodal Transportation
Utilizing rail as an alternative to crowded highways not only offers cheaper cap ex but also significantly reduces CO2 emissions. Quality truckers face burdensome regulations, and finding qualified drivers presents a challenge. There are few, if any, shipping contracts with customers, rail, and ocean carriers, highlighting the need for understanding the industry and considering non-traditional financing structures.
Small Modular Reactors
Nuclear energy is our future. Achieving that future involves a long and costly journey. The regulatory process is improving. The demand for electricity is increasing at an increasing rate with a huge thirst from data centers and AI. These projects aim for Net Zero, and once commissioned, they will produce energy for decades without being weather dependent. In addition to small modular reactors, micro reactors can be deployed in more locations with their own grid.
Therapeutics
I am connected to institutional, SFO, hospitals, and foundations. My experience includes buccal patch of drug delivery to optimize therapeutics, skin creams for eczema, dry skin and rashes, prevention of the side effects of chemo and radiation, and diabetic retinopathy.
Native American Casinos
I have written numerous performance and payment bonds for projects on tribal land, which often require creative expert legal advice from experienced attorneys. I collaborate with a NYSE firm that funded a $500,000,000 project.
