About Our Energy Business

Infrastructure that
decarbonizes communities

Theia develops, owns, and operates clean energy infrastructure — including district energy systems, waste-heat recovery utilities, and low-carbon community energy solutions. We bring together deep technical expertise, innovative financing, and long-term operational commitment to deliver measurable carbon reductions at scale.

The built environment accounts for nearly 40% of global carbon emissions. We believe the infrastructure connecting our buildings is the most powerful lever we have to change that.
