Built to Decarbonize

Accelerating the growth of future-fit businesses to reshape the industrial economy.

We commercialize and scale companies that are critical for the transition to net-zero.

Our focus is on the high-polluting areas of the industrial economy, helping to provide the products and services we all rely on with less waste and lower emissions – at cost parity or better. We invest in technologies, back businesses that help these to grow and build decarbonization infrastructure on the ground.

Private Equity

We invest in technologies that are displacing existing, polluting industrial processes, as well as the businesses that provide products and services to decarbonization platforms.

Sector focus:

  • Industrial and manufacturing
  • Chemicals and materials
  • Food and agriculture
  • Energy efficiency and green fuels

Infrastructure

We build new infrastructure and repurpose high-quality existing assets that are required to underpin a lower-carbon economy. We invest in the same sectors as our private equity strategy, with a current focus on three specific themes.

Investment themes:

  • Low-carbon molecules production, storage and distribution
  • Waste to X – infrastructure that diverts waste from landfill
  • Decarbonization solutions for the Infrastructure value chain

Energy Decarbonization

We invest in conventional energy assets across the value chain, ensuring they continue to meet global energy needs while advancing our commitment to a sustainable future. We invest along the value chain, including:

  • Power generation
  • Biofuels
  • Distribution
