They believe that the innovation, creativity and agility of startups can drive change towards a low-carbon future. This international energy company is committed to long-term value creation in a low-carbon future, so their purpose is to turn natural resources into energy for people and progress for society.

They can provide venture capital and project-based funding of early-phase ideas. All this is supported by technical, market and financial guidance, with a strong drive for piloting and implementing the solutions.

Their current portfolio is primarily in Europe and North America, but they’re open to opportunities globally. They are looking to invest around USD 750 million over the next five years and are seeking to allocate 70% of the capital to renewables, low-carbon solutions and future opportunities.
