Frank Liu Speaks on Funding Pathways for Clean Energy Projects at Burnaby Summit
Frank Liu:
“The next $100 million return won’t come from invention - it will come from deployment.”
Frank Liu, General Partner and CEO of Infinite Grid Capital (IGC), participated in the “Funding for Clean Energy Projects in B.C.” panel at the Clean Energy Summit hosted by the Burnaby Board of Trade.
The discussion brought together leaders from RBCx, IGC, and HTEC to explore practical financing strategies across the clean energy spectrum — from early-stage ventures to large-scale infrastructure platforms. The panel examined capital structuring, regulatory considerations, and the evolving investment landscape shaping British Columbia’s energy transition.
During the session, Liu emphasized the importance of execution and scalable deployment in today’s market environment:
“The companies that can deploy assets efficiently and quickly to market will be the winners.”
He also highlighted the role of policy stability in attracting capital, noting that predictable regulatory environments reduce risk and support long-term infrastructure investment.
As power demand accelerates — particularly driven by AI, electrification, and grid modernization — access to structured capital and disciplined deployment strategies will remain critical to advancing clean energy infrastructure across Canada and the United States.
IGC continues to focus on scalable energy storage and hybrid infrastructure platforms designed to meet growing power demand with capital-efficient execution.
