RenewableTech Ventures

Founder and Managing Director Todd Stevens leads investment decisions, supported by Partner Rose Maizner and a team of four Venture Partners. Stevens brings the experience of six prior venture funds and over 100 portfolio companies from his time running EPIC Ventures and the Zions Bank Venture Capital Department.

The firm's mandate spans the broader cleantech spectrum, including energy, transportation, advanced materials, manufacturing, infrastructure, and agriculture. Public portfolio companies confirm this breadth: Solid Carbon Products works on CO2 conversion technology; Ashtech produces construction materials from coal waste; and Consolidated Energy Systems develops alternative fuels from petroleum coke.

The firm concentrates on the Intermountain West and Western Canada — regions it considers underserved by coastal venture capital. Managing Director Todd Stevens draws on his network from the University of Utah's Technology Commercialization Advisory Board and Lassonde Center Advisory Board, as well as his prior capital deployment across Utah's technology ecosystem at EPIC Ventures and Zions Bank.

RenewableTech applies an explicit geographic filter, deliberately competing in regions with thin venture coverage rather than in saturated coastal hubs. Its team has 80 years of combined venture capital, clean-tech, and entrepreneurial experience, and the portfolio skews toward physical-plant innovation — CO2 converters, alternative wallboard, petroleum-coke fuel — rather than software-only climate plays.
