About Sustainable Development Partners, LLC

Sustainable Development Partners, LCC (SD Partners) is an international consulting firm promoting sustainable development through Renewable Energy (RE) and infrastructure investments.

Sustainable Development Partners, LLC's goal is to help provide the development & financing of Wind, Solar PV, Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), and other renewable energies in emerging and developing counties. In doing so, we proposes to help establish “Best Practice for Renewable Energy”, with sound regulatory, institutional, technical, commercial and financial structures which can be replicated in countries. We believe this future RE success story can have a ripple effect throughout worldwide by helping accelerate the uptake of renewable energy and enabling emerging and developing countries to go beyond their targeted energy goals.

By the year 2010, Sustainable Development Partners, LLC proposes to have such a "model poster country" and to help replicate this model, thereby significantly increasing the deployment and use of renewable's energy worldwide.

SD Partners was founded in the summer of 2007 by two Georgetown University alumni, as a joint initiative of two independent companies. Our first project was to provide technical assistance in the investment of Renewable Energy via Wind Energy Auto-producer Contracts for the country of Morocco. Our consultants were contracted by the World Bank to develop a regulatory and contractual framework for the Office National de l’Electricité (Morocco's state-owned electricity utility) to launch a national 300 MW program for wind energy production. Our consultant's responsibilities included preparing implementation decrees and drafting contract models to allow the Morocco's ONE to transport electricity for third-parties and to purchase surplus wind-generated electricity.

In January 2008, the two companies concluded to resume with independent P&L's and potentially partners on select projects. Soon after launching the Morocco Wind Energy project in February, the informal partnership dissolved. Since then, Partnership International, Inc's principles formally incorporated Sustainable Development Partners, LLC in Delaware and Virginia and secured the SD Partners US trademark with our mission to assist investors in making sustainable investments in Renewable Energies in emerging and developing country markets.

SD Partners' Best-Practices, Market-Oriented Approach

SD Partners works closely with private clients, government agencies, multilateral organizations and bilateral donors in creating the necessary regulatory, institutional and economic frameworks to promote investments in vital RE infrastructure projects that promote economic growth, social development, eliminate poverty and create jobs.

SD Partners believe in establishing a strong local presence as the key to our success in addressing the requirements of our clients. In doing so, we work closely with local partners in developing and proposing best practices solutions which address the internal vision of the country with the international perspective and market-place.
