District energy utility in Rochester, NY. | |
Overview[edit]
RED-Rochester, LLC is a district energy utility serving the Eastman Business Park in Rochester, NY.[1]
RED-Rochester was formed in 2013 when Eastman Kodak sold the Eastman Business Park's utility infrastructure to Recycled Energy Development as part of Kodak's bankruptcy proceedings.[2] RED-Rochester was later sold in 2016 to Ironclad Energy Partners, a joint venture of Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners and Ironclad Energy Ventures LLC.[3] RED-Rochester was sold again in 2021, this time to the SDCL Energy Efficiency Income Trust (SEEIT), which is in turn owned by Sustainable Development Capital LLP (SDCL).[4][5][6][7][8] RED-Rochester remains owned by SEEIT as of November, 2023.
