We invest in energy infrastructure to create exceptional value

The electrification of society and booming demand for power. The push to decarbonize. The increasing focus on energy independence and security. Energy infrastructure sits at the center of megatrends that require massive investments. We connect institutional capital with exclusive private equity investment opportunities.

Decarbonization
To reach net zero commitments, the global energy system will need to dramatically reduce carbon emissions.
Electrification
With seismic shifts towards electrification across the board — from artificial intelligence to electric vehicles — demand for power has never been higher.
Security
Relying on foreign export partners has become an unsustainable strategy, leaving countries worldwide focused on energy independence as a matter of natural security.
