Power REIT

Company Overview
History and Background
Power REIT was founded in 2012 with a focus on acquiring and managing real estate related to infrastructure assets. It has evolved from traditional real estate to focus on Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) facilities and renewable energy infrastructure.
Core Business Areas

- Renewable Energy Infrastructure: The company invests in real estate assets related to solar farms and other renewable energy projects.

Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- CEA Real Estate Leases: Power REIT leases properties to cannabis growers. Revenue is derived from rental income. Market share data is difficult to pinpoint, but they are a niche player in the cannabis REIT space. Competitors include Innovative Industrial Properties (IIPR) and NewLake Capital Partners (NLCP).
- Renewable Energy Leases: Leases of land under solar farm installations. The market share of renewable energy leases is small. Competitors are American Tower Corporation (AMT) and Crown Castle International (CCI).

The CEA industry is growing rapidly due to increasing demand for locally sourced and sustainably grown produce. The renewable energy sector is also expanding, driven by government incentives and environmental concerns.
Positioning

Total Addressable Market (TAM)
The TAM for CEA real estate is estimated to be in the billions of dollars, with the renewable energy market being significantly larger. Power REIT is positioned to capture a portion of this market through strategic acquisitions and partnerships.
