THE RIDGEWOOD POWER GROWTH FUND
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
 
1.            DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the “Fund”) is a Delaware trust formed on February 18, 1997. The Fund began offering shares of beneficial interest (“Investor Shares”) in February 1998 and concluded its offering in April 2000. The Fund has 658.2067 Investor Shares outstanding. Prior to the adoption of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution (described below), the objective of the Fund was to provide benefits to its shareholders through a combination of distributions of operating cash flow and capital appreciation. The Managing Shareholder of the Fund is Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the “Managing Shareholder”). Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.
 
On March 2, 2010, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the “Plan of Dissolution”) became effective. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its remaining assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities. Upon the completion of these activities, if successful, the Managing Shareholder expects to distribute any remaining cash to the Fund’s shareholders and then proceed to terminate the Fund and its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Fund is required to make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit the Fund’s ability to make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund’s liabilities, including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the amount or timing of any future distributions by the Fund.
 
Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to conduct the Fund’s dissolution, liquidation and termination without additional shareholder approval. As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, the Fund has not been liquidated, primarily due to on-going matters discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder is unable to estimate when these matters will be resolved and what financial impact the matters will have on the Fund’s net assets or the timing, likelihood or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.
 
In March 2012, the Fund made distributions to its shareholders of $3,457, or $5,170 per Investor Share, as a result of the settlement agreement discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder, and its affiliates, did not receive any portion of the distribution, including any distributions to Investor Shares held by the Managing Shareholder and its affiliates. It is possible that resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 could result in a payment to the Fund; however, the Fund does not anticipate making additional distributions until the Fund has completed the liquidation process. At that time, the Fund’s remaining cash, if any, will be distributed to holders of Investor Shares. The Fund currently has no cash, and does not expect to have any cash with which to make further distributions to shareholders unless resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 results in a payment to the Fund.
 
The Fund believes that it currently has access to sufficient resources to meet its anticipated obligations, as the Managing Shareholder has agreed to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and waive all future management fees. Additionally, the Fund is not paying any on-going expenses regarding the matters discussed in Note 3. As a result, no additional estimated expenses for liquidation have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements of the Fund.
 
The Fund has evaluated subsequent events and transactions through the date of the issuance of its financial statements, and concluded that there were no such events or transactions that require adjustment to, or disclosure in the notes to, the condensed financial statements.
 
2             BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed financial statements for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2012 (the “2011 Form 10-K”). No significant changes have been made to the Fund’s accounting policies and estimates disclosed in its 2011 Form 10-K.
 
 
THE RIDGEWOOD POWER GROWTH FUND
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
 
Upon the effectiveness of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution, the Fund adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. On an on-going basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on the Fund’s reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.
 
3.            LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On March 20, 2007, the Paul Bergeron Trust (“Bergeron”) commenced a derivative action on behalf of the Fund, in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund and Ridgewood Electric Power Trust V (“Trust V”) by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of underlying projects in which each of the Fund and Trust V had an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:
 
 
·
with participation from the Managing Shareholder’s primary insurer, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, part of the Hartford Insurance Group, to cause a cash payment to be made to the Fund and Trust V, less attorneys’ fees awarded by the court to the plaintiffs’ attorneys and a reimbursement to the Managing Shareholder as partial reimbursement for operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V,
 
·
to assign to the derivative plaintiffs, on behalf of the Fund and Trust V, all of the defendants’ rights and claims for coverage from, and any claims for damages against, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company (“Liberty”), the Managing Shareholder’s excess insurance carrier,
 
·
for the Managing Shareholder and any affiliated entities to waive any rights to any future distributions by the Fund and Trust V,
 
·
for the Managing Shareholder to waive the bulk of the Managing Shareholder’s management fees for 2011, as well as all management fees on a going-forward basis, and for the Managing Shareholder to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V until the two funds are liquidated.
 
In January 2012, the Court gave its final approval of the settlement. The Court did not determine the merits of the plaintiffs’ allegations, rendered no verdict and the settlement agreement is not an admission of any of the facts alleged by the plaintiffs or of any wrongdoing by the defendants. In March 2012, the cash portion of the settlement was made to the two funds, allocated in accordance with the agreement, and distributions made to their respective shareholders. The amount of cash distributed to the Fund shareholders totaled $3,457.
 
The derivative plaintiffs are responsible for the managing, and ultimate disposition, of any claims against Liberty, and as a result, the Managing Shareholder is not able to predict when there will be a resolution of the claims, or if such resolution will include a payment to the Fund and Trust V. In June 2012, the derivative plaintiffs filed an amended claim in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, against Liberty, to pursue claims that were assigned as part of the above-mentioned settlement, including among other things, breach of contract. The plaintiffs are seeking the award of damages, interest, costs and attorney fees, as well as the authority to enforce the January 2012 settlement agreement against Liberty.
 
 
 
This management’s discussion and analysis of the Fund as of September 30, 2012 is intended to help readers analyze the accompanying condensed financial statements, notes and other information contained in this report. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed financial statements, notes and other information included elsewhere in this report as well as the financial statements, notes and other information and Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Fund’s 2011 Form 10-K.
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
Certain statements discussed in this item and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally relate to the Fund’s plans, objectives and expectations for future events and include statements about the Fund’s expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are based upon management’s expectations, opinions and estimates as of the date they are made. Although management believes that the expectations, opinions and estimates reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties many of which may be beyond the Fund’s control, which could cause actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from the results, performance and achievements projected, expected, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Examples of events that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated include:
 
 
·
possible contingent liabilities and risks associated with the dissolution and liquidation of the Fund,
 
·
costs or liabilities of an unusual or nonrecurring nature during liquidation,
 
·
the actual timing of the completion of the liquidation process, including, without limitation, the timing of the resolution of the matters described in Part I, Item 1, Note 3. “Legal Proceedings” of this report, and
 
·
the amount and timing of liquidating distributions, if any.
 
Additional information concerning the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements is contained elsewhere in this report and in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in the Fund’s 2011 Form 10-K. Any forward-looking statement that the Fund makes speaks only as of the date of this report. The Fund undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
 
Liquidation Basis of Accounting
 
Upon the effectiveness of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution, the Fund adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. On an on-going basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the Fund’s reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The discussion and analysis of the Fund’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Fund’s condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. In preparing these financial statements, the Fund is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of the Fund’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amounts of changes in net assets. The estimates also affect the reported estimated value of net realizable assets and settlement of liabilities. The Fund evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis. The Fund bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that the Fund believes to be reasonable at the time the estimates and assumptions are made. However, future events and their effects cannot be predicted with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions under different circumstances or conditions, and such differences may be material to the condensed financial statements. No significant changes have been made to the Fund’s critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in its 2011 Form 10-K.
 
 
Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Condition
 
Net assets at September 30, 2012 were zero, a decrease of $3,457,000 from December 31, 2011. This decrease from December 31, 2011 is due to the distribution of settlement proceeds to shareholders that occurred during the first quarter, as discussed in Part I, Item 1, Note 3. “Legal Proceedings” of this report.
 
Effective in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Managing Shareholder agreed to waive all future management fees and to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund. As a result, there was no financial activity for the Fund during 2012,  other than the distribution referred to above.
 
Future Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements
 
The Managing Shareholder has agreed to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and waive all future management fees. Additionally, the Fund is not paying any on-going expenses regarding the matters discussed in Item 1, Note 3 “Legal Proceedings.” As a result, the Fund believes that it has access to sufficient working capital for the next 12 months. The Fund intends to distribute excess cash, if any, to its shareholders after liquidating its remaining assets and satisfying its liabilities.
 
The Fund currently has no cash, and does not expect to have any cash with which to make further distributions to shareholders unless resolution of the matters discussed in Part I, Item 1, Note 3 “Legal Proceedings” results in a payment to the Trust. The Managing Shareholder is unable to predict when or how these matters will be resolved or estimate what financial impact these matters will have on the Trust’s net assets or the timing, likelihood or amount of any distributions to shareholders.
 
The Fund does not anticipate any further distributions to shareholders until the Fund has completed the liquidation process.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
 
None.
 
 
Not required.
 
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Fund’s management, with the participation of the Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer concluded that the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Fund in reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by the Fund is accumulated and communicated to senior management so as to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
The Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer has concluded that there was no change in the Fund's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting.

Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund and Ridgewood Electric Power Trust V ("Trust V") by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of underlying projects in which each of the Fund and Trust V had an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:</div> <div> <table style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr valign="top"> <td style="WIDTH: 36pt">&nbsp;</td> <td style="WIDTH: 18pt"> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: symbol, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"> &middot;</div> </td> <td> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; text-align: left"> with participation from the Managing Shareholder&#39;s primary insurer, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, part of the Hartford Insurance Group, to cause a cash payment to be made to the Fund and Trust V, less attorneys&#39; fees awarded by the court to the plaintiffs&#39; attorneys and a reimbursement to the Managing Shareholder as partial reimbursement for operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V,</div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div> <table style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr valign="top"> <td style="WIDTH: 36pt">&nbsp;</td> <td style="WIDTH: 18pt"> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: symbol, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"> &middot;</div> </td> <td> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; text-align: left"> to assign to the derivative plaintiffs, on behalf of the Fund and Trust V, all of the defendants&#39; rights and claims for coverage from, and any claims for damages against, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company ("Liberty"), the Managing Shareholder&#39;s excess insurance carrier,</div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div> <table style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr valign="top"> <td style="WIDTH: 36pt">&nbsp;</td> <td style="WIDTH: 18pt"> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: symbol, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"> &middot;</div> </td> <td> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; text-align: left"> for the Managing Shareholder and any affiliated entities to waive any rights to any future distributions by the Fund and Trust V,</div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div> <table style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr valign="top"> <td style="WIDTH: 36pt">&nbsp;</td> <td style="WIDTH: 18pt"> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: symbol, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"> &middot;</div> </td> <td> <div style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; text-align: left"> for the Managing Shareholder to waive the bulk of the Managing Shareholder&#39;s management fees for 2011, as well as all management fees on a going-forward basis, and for the Managing Shareholder to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V until the two funds are liquidated.</div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> In January 2012, the Court gave its final approval of the settlement.

The Fund began offering shares of beneficial interest ("Investor Shares") in February 1998 and concluded its offering in April 2000. The Fund has 658.2067 Investor Shares outstanding. Prior to the adoption of the Fund&#39;s Plan of Dissolution (described below), the objective of the Fund was to provide benefits to its shareholders through a combination of distributions of operating cash flow and capital appreciation. The Managing Shareholder of the Fund is Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the "Managing Shareholder"). Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.</div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> On March 2, 2010, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the "Plan of Dissolution") became effective. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its remaining assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities. Upon the completion of these activities, if successful, the Managing Shareholder expects to distribute any remaining cash to the Fund&#39;s shareholders and then proceed to terminate the Fund and its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Fund is required to make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit the Fund&#39;s ability to make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund&#39;s liabilities, including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the amount or timing of any future distributions by the Fund.</div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to conduct the Fund&#39;s dissolution, liquidation and termination without additional shareholder approval. As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, the Fund has not been liquidated, primarily due to on-going matters discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder is unable to estimate when these matters will be resolved and what financial impact the matters will have on the Fund&#39;s net assets or the timing, likelihood or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.</div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> In March 2012, the Fund made distributions to its shareholders of $3,457, or $5,170 per Investor Share, as a result of the settlement agreement discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder, and its affiliates, did not receive any portion of the distribution, including any distributions to Investor Shares held by the Managing Shareholder and its affiliates. It is possible that resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 could result in a payment to the Fund; however, the Fund does not anticipate making additional distributions until the Fund has completed the liquidation process. At that time, the Fund&#39;s remaining cash, if any, will be distributed to holders of Investor Shares. The Fund currently has no cash, and does not expect to have any cash with which to make further distributions to shareholders unless resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 results in a payment to the Fund.</div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> The Fund believes that it currently has access to sufficient resources to meet its anticipated obligations, as the Managing Shareholder has agreed to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and waive all future management fees. Additionally, the Fund is not paying any on-going expenses regarding the matters discussed in Note 3. As a result, no additional estimated expenses for liquidation have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements of the Fund.</div> <div style="DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; text-align: left; TEXT-INDENT: 36pt"> The Fund has evaluated subsequent events and transactions through the date of the issuance of its financial statements, and concluded that there were no such events or transactions that require adjustment to, or disclosure in the notes to, the condensed financial statements.</div> <!--EndFragment--></div> </div> 658.2067 -89000 ISO4217:USD ISO4217:USD xbrli:shares xbrli:shares 0001057076 2012-07-01 2012-09-30 0001057076 2012-03-01 2012-03-31 0001057076 2012-01-01 2012-09-30 0001057076 2011-07-01 2011-09-30 0001057076 2011-01-01 2011-09-30 0001057076 2012-09-30 0001057076 2012-06-30 0001057076 2011-12-31 0001057076 2011-09-30 0001057076 2011-06-30 0001057076 2010-12-31 EX-101.SCH 5 cik1057076-20120930.xsd EXHIBIT 101.SCH 002 - Statement - CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 102 - Disclosure - BASIS OF PRESENTATION link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 202 - Disclosure - BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Policy) link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 003 - Statement - CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 001 - Document - Document and Entity Information link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 101 - Disclosure - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 40101 - Disclosure - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (DETAILS) link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 103 - Disclosure - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink 40301 - Disclosure - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (DETAILS) link:calculationLink link:definitionLink link:presentationLink link:labelLink link:referenceLink EX-101.CAL 6 cik1057076-20120930_cal.xml EXHIBIT 101.CAL EX-101.LAB 7 cik1057076-20120930_lab.xml EXHIBIT 101.LAB Amendment Flag Current Fiscal Year End Date Document and Entity Information [Abstract] Document And Entity Information [Abstract].

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On March 20, 2007, the Paul Bergeron Trust ("Bergeron") commenced a derivative action on behalf of the Fund, in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund and Ridgewood Electric Power Trust V ("Trust V") by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of underlying projects in which each of the Fund and Trust V had an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:
 
·
with participation from the Managing Shareholder's primary insurer, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, part of the Hartford Insurance Group, to cause a cash payment to be made to the Fund and Trust V, less attorneys' fees awarded by the court to the plaintiffs' attorneys and a reimbursement to the Managing Shareholder as partial reimbursement for operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V,
 
·
to assign to the derivative plaintiffs, on behalf of the Fund and Trust V, all of the defendants' rights and claims for coverage from, and any claims for damages against, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company ("Liberty"), the Managing Shareholder's excess insurance carrier,
 
·
for the Managing Shareholder and any affiliated entities to waive any rights to any future distributions by the Fund and Trust V,
 
·
for the Managing Shareholder to waive the bulk of the Managing Shareholder's management fees for 2011, as well as all management fees on a going-forward basis, and for the Managing Shareholder to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V until the two funds are liquidated.
In January 2012, the Court gave its final approval of the settlement. The Court did not determine the merits of the plaintiffs' allegations, rendered no verdict and the settlement agreement is not an admission of any of the facts alleged by the plaintiffs or of any wrongdoing by the defendants. In March 2012, the cash portion of the settlement was made to the two funds, allocated in accordance with the agreement, and distributions made to their respective shareholders. The amount of cash distributed to the Fund shareholders totaled $3,457.
The derivative plaintiffs are responsible for the managing, and ultimate disposition, of any claims against Liberty, and as a result, the Managing Shareholder is not able to predict when there will be a resolution of the claims, or if such resolution will include a payment to the Fund and Trust V. In June 2012, the derivative plaintiffs filed an amended claim in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, against Liberty, to pursue claims that were assigned as part of the above-mentioned settlement, including among other things, breach of contract. The plaintiffs are seeking the award of damages, interest, costs and attorney fees, as well as the authority to enforce the January 2012 settlement agreement against Liberty.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION [Abstract]  
Basis Of Presentation
The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed financial statements for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2012 (the "2011 Form 10-K"). No significant changes have been made to the Fund's accounting policies and estimates disclosed in its 2011 Form 10-K.
Upon the effectiveness of the Fund's Plan of Dissolution, the Fund adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. On an on-going basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on the Fund's reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS [Abstract]  
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the "Fund") is a Delaware trust formed on February 18, 1997. The Fund began offering shares of beneficial interest ("Investor Shares") in February 1998 and concluded its offering in April 2000. The Fund has 658.2067 Investor Shares outstanding. Prior to the adoption of the Fund's Plan of Dissolution (described below), the objective of the Fund was to provide benefits to its shareholders through a combination of distributions of operating cash flow and capital appreciation. The Managing Shareholder of the Fund is Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the "Managing Shareholder"). Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.
On March 2, 2010, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the "Plan of Dissolution") became effective. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its remaining assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities. Upon the completion of these activities, if successful, the Managing Shareholder expects to distribute any remaining cash to the Fund's shareholders and then proceed to terminate the Fund and its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Fund is required to make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit the Fund's ability to make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund's liabilities, including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the amount or timing of any future distributions by the Fund.
Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to conduct the Fund's dissolution, liquidation and termination without additional shareholder approval. As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, the Fund has not been liquidated, primarily due to on-going matters discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder is unable to estimate when these matters will be resolved and what financial impact the matters will have on the Fund's net assets or the timing, likelihood or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.
In March 2012, the Fund made distributions to its shareholders of $3,457, or $5,170 per Investor Share, as a result of the settlement agreement discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder, and its affiliates, did not receive any portion of the distribution, including any distributions to Investor Shares held by the Managing Shareholder and its affiliates. It is possible that resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 could result in a payment to the Fund; however, the Fund does not anticipate making additional distributions until the Fund has completed the liquidation process. At that time, the Fund's remaining cash, if any, will be distributed to holders of Investor Shares. The Fund currently has no cash, and does not expect to have any cash with which to make further distributions to shareholders unless resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 results in a payment to the Fund.
The Fund believes that it currently has access to sufficient resources to meet its anticipated obligations, as the Managing Shareholder has agreed to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and waive all future management fees. Additionally, the Fund is not paying any on-going expenses regarding the matters discussed in Note 3. As a result, no additional estimated expenses for liquidation have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements of the Fund.
The Fund has evaluated subsequent events and transactions through the date of the issuance of its financial statements, and concluded that there were no such events or transactions that require adjustment to, or disclosure in the notes to, the condensed financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2012 (the "2011 Form 10-K"). No significant changes have been made to the Fund's accounting policies and estimates disclosed in its 2011 Form 10-K.
Upon the effectiveness of the Fund's Plan of Dissolution, the Fund adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. On an on-going basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on the Fund's reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.
