ArcLight Capital Partners

Founder Daniel Revers oversees overall investment, asset management, and strategic planning. The senior team includes partners Jake Erhard and Carter Ward, who have been with the firm since 2001, alongside 2022 hire Angelo Acconcia, previously a founding partner of Blackstone Energy Partners.

ArcLight operates a full in-house technical and operational capability — including construction management, commercial origination, hedging, and regulatory intervention — rather than outsourcing asset management. The firm also deploys a dedicated ~2,000-person asset management partner to run its power and infrastructure assets directly.

ArcLight engages in both. The firm acquires and optimizes operating assets such as Griffith Energy and Gulf Coast Express while also internally developing greenfield projects. Elevate Renewables, which is building a 5 GW utility-scale battery storage pipeline co-located with ArcLight's existing power infrastructure, is an example of its development platform.

ArcLight views natural gas transmission, storage, and LNG infrastructure as having a long-term role in the transition. The firm's Gulf Coast Express pipeline investment reflects a thesis that contracted midstream gas assets serving LNG export corridors remain critical as power markets tighten.

ArcLight leans on its deep domain network in power and midstream, supplemented by in-house fundamental market research and policy analysis. The firm has demonstrated a pattern of corporate carve-outs and complex restructurings, where its operating capability allows it to bid on assets that pure financial buyers cannot easily underwrite.
