Electrification Runs on Wire and Cable

The build-out of the electric economy — new generation, grid upgrades, renewables, data centers, EV infrastructure — consumes staggering quantities of wire and cable, and the hardware that connects it. Companies that can reliably supply it are critical for supporting the mass electrification that is driving the energy industry.

American Wire Group, founded in 2001, supplies transmission and distribution, medium- and low-voltage and specialty cable along with pole-line hardware, equipment, and engineering and value-added services — drawing on one of the nation's largest wire-and-cable inventories across distribution centers throughout the U.S. Its customers span power utilities, renewable developers, data centers, and commercial and industrial markets.

Greenbelt made a strategic majority investment in AWG in 2026, partnering with the founding management team. It is an expression of the firm's enablement-layer thesis: back the platform that supplies the materials every project needs.

Supplying Every Corner of the Grid

From utilities and renewables to data centers and industry, AWG serves the full breadth of electrical demand — products, hardware, engineering, and value-added services from a single source.

The Platform Beneath Every Project

Demand for electrical hardware is being driven by multiple generational demand centers, all at once — grid hardening, renewable interconnection, data-center construction, and industrial electrification. A virtual manufacturer and value-added distributor with deep inventory, national reach, and engineering support doesn't just fill orders; it keeps projects on schedule when supply chains are stretched.

That reliability is the moat. Greenbelt's investment backs AWG's ability to scale with the build-out — broadening its product breadth and reach as the electrification wave compounds.

“We believe AWG is a differentiated, value-add distribution platform led by an exceptional management team with a strong track record of growth.”

Connecting the Electric Economy

Every line strung, every substation built, every data center energized needs the wire, cable, and hardware to connect it. American Wire Group supplies it at national scale — a critical link in the electrification build-out, and a clear expression of how Greenbelt invests in the platforms that make the energy transition possible.
