Building the Future of Global Energy Innovation

A venture capital firm backing early-stage new energy startups across Asia-Pacific and Europe. We invest alongside founders, maximising returns through business model innovation and hands-on operational support.

The global energy transition is creating a new class of infrastructure assets

EV adoption across Asia-Pacific is accelerating, but charging infrastructure and fleet financing lag far behind demand. This gap creates a distinct opportunity for investors with cross-border operational capability and supply chain access.

EV Adoption

EV Adoption Acceleration

Global EV sales exceeded 20 million units in 2025, capturing 25% of all new car sales. Asia-Pacific accounts for 67% of global EV volume, with China alone surpassing a 50% sales share. ASEAN markets are growing nearly 50% year-on-year — Indonesia has reached 15% EV penetration, Vietnam is approaching 40%, and Thailand has broken 20% — and commercial fleets are the next wave of conversion.

Infrastructure Gap

Infrastructure Gap

Indonesia scored just 1.4 out of 5 for EV infrastructure readiness in PwC's 2025 eReadiness Survey. Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam have collectively installed over 24,000 chargers — 9× more than 2022 — yet government 2030 targets call for hundreds of thousands more. Fleet operators won't convert until charging is reliable; investors won't build until demand is proven. Breaking this deadlock requires both operational expertise and capital.

China Supply Chain

China Supply Chain Advantage

Six Chinese battery manufacturers control nearly 69% of the global EV battery market, with CATL alone at 37.9%. BYD exported over 1 million vehicles in 2025, more than doubling its 2024 volume. Total Chinese EV exports nearly tripled from 2022 to 2025, reaching US$37.3 billion. Direct manufacturer relationships allow us to procure vehicles and infrastructure equipment on favourable economics, creating a structural cost advantage across Asia-Pacific.

How we generate returns

We invest early in new energy ventures where business model innovation — not just technology — is the primary driver of outsized returns. Our hands-on approach de-risks execution and accelerates the path to profitability.

Identify

Early-Stage Deal Sourcing

Proprietary pipeline of early-stage new energy ventures where market timing, regulatory tailwinds, and unmet demand create asymmetric return opportunities.

Incubate

Business Model Innovation

We work with founders to design revenue models that generate stable, recurring income from day one — asset leasing, cost-plus charging, demand-response services — not speculative technology bets.

Co-Invest

Hands-On Value Creation

Active operational involvement — supply chain procurement, local partner structuring, and phased deployment — that de-risks execution and compresses the timeline from investment to cash-flow positive.

Expand

Scale & Exit

Proven unit economics in one market become the blueprint for multi-geography expansion. Portfolio companies scale into asset-rich platforms with clear paths to secondary sale, refinancing, or strategic acquisition.

Where we invest

Our current focus is on asset-backed new energy investments across Asia-Pacific, with an emphasis on commercial EV fleets, charging infrastructure, and energy storage.

Fleets

Commercial EV Fleet Leasing

  • Acquire and lease EV vehicles to established fleet operators under long-term contracts
  • Fixed rental income with variable upside linked to operating performance
  • Counterparties bear operating costs, insurance, and maintenance obligations
  • Batched deployment to validate economics before scaling
Charging

EV Charging Infrastructure

  • Build and own fast DC charging station networks targeting commercial EV fleets
  • Cost-plus revenue model with pass-through economics
  • Partnered operating model — local partners handle EPC, operations, and client acquisition
  • Multiple geographies for portfolio diversification
Storage

Energy Storage Infrastructure

  • Invest in battery energy storage systems (BESS) supporting grid stability and renewable energy integration
  • Peak shaving and demand response services for commercial and industrial users
  • Leveraging China supply chain for cost-competitive storage equipment procurement
  • Co-located with charging infrastructure to optimise grid load management

For co-investors and liquidity partners

Early-stage entry, asset-backed downside protection, and high-return upside driven by business model innovation. nPower originates, operates, and scales — co-investors participate in structured returns without managing day-to-day execution.

Deal Flow

Curated Deal Flow

Proprietary sourcing focused on early-stage ventures where market timing creates outsized return potential. Every opportunity is pre-vetted for commercial viability and validated with real operating data before being presented to co-investors.

Asset-Backed

Asset-Backed Structures

Investments backed by physical assets — vehicles, charging stations, and storage equipment. Return structures feature stable income floors with high-return upside linked to operating performance. Phased deployment ensures capital is de-risked before scale-up.

Operations

Operational Expertise

Not passive capital — active value creation. nPower manages asset deployment, local partner relationships, and ongoing operational oversight. The founding team brings cross-border business-building experience from working with Fortune 500 companies globally and in China.

For startup founders

Investment structures tailored to your stage and needs — equity, debt, or hybrid instruments. nPower can also bring in co-investment from its LP network, providing follow-on capital support as your venture scales.

Manufacturing

China Manufacturing Access

Direct relationships with China's EV and energy equipment manufacturers. We help you access cost-competitive procurement, technical support, and supply chain integration — whether your product involves vehicles, charging equipment, or energy storage systems.

Global

Global Market Entry

Cross-border expertise spanning the UK, UAE, Japan, South-East Asia, and Hong Kong. We help with regulatory navigation, local partner introductions, and go-to-market strategy — backed by a team that has built businesses alongside Fortune 500 companies.
