Avrio

Renewable natural gas

Renewable natural gas is a key part of Europe’s decarbonisation pathway, particularly in hard-to-abate sectors. Yet with biomethane typically produced from high-energy-intensive crops, meeting rising demand comes with its own CO2 question. This makes our new financing solution for Avrio Energie especially relevant. Part of the Deutsche Beteiligungs AG portfolio, Avrio focuses on biomethane production from animal-based feedstock. With our financing Avrio can, through strategic acquisitions and upgrades, expand its platform to scale up biomethane production and play an even bigger role in Germany’s sustainable energy transition. As demand for renewable gas continues to rise particularly for transport and industrial applications projects that deliver biomethane from waste are crucial to achieving Europe's decarbonization targets. Scaling industrial assets of this kind demands flexible, creative capital solutions; precisely where the P Capital Partners Transition Fund comes in. This deal not only marks the fund’s entry into the German biomethane market, it broadens our European footprint following recent investments in Sweden and Norway, underlining our position as a leading capital partner to the sustainability transition.
