Overview
partner profiles
The shift from fossil fuels to cleaner, more sustainable and renewable sources of energy is driven by a need to halt climate change, reduce pollution, and improve energy security. Advancements in technology are also making renewable energy sources more cost effective and accessible.
The world needs to change to a global energy system that is reliable, affordable and sustainable. Mercuria plays an active role by promoting sustainability and investing in technologies and infrastructure that advance the transition to this low-carbon economy.
We don’t have the solution, but we must go into action. We are a private company, who can act with speed and scale. We have committed that half of our investments will be in all parts of the energy transition by 2025. We are well ahead of this goal and have invested in over 50 different companies across a range of sectors from innovative start-ups offering EV charging and vehicle-to-grid services to large-scale renewable power projects and companies that convert biomass or non-recyclable waste into alternative fuels or raw materials as well as carbon-capture and nature-based solutions.
Here you can read about some of the companies that we have invested in or partnered with as part of our contribution to the future transformation of the energy sector.
