Energy Revolution Ventures

Energy Revolution Ventures operates out of London as a seed-to-Series-A specialist, deploying into electrochemical startups that rebuild energy infrastructure from first principles. The firm emerged to fill a capital gap between university spin-outs and later-stage industrial investors, concentrating its underwriting resources on hard-science teams working at the battery, membrane and gas-separation frontier. Its portfolio tilts heavily toward energy storage and green hydrogen. Confirmed positions include Anthro Energy, a US-based developer of flexible, non-flammable lithium-ion cells; Quino Energy, which builds water-based organic flow batteries for grid-scale applications; and Oort Energy, a low-cost hydrogen electrolyser company. The firm also reaches into carbon capture via Immaterial, whose metal organic frameworks target gigaton-scale CO₂ adsorption, and DiviGas, which commercialises hydrogen-purification membranes spun out of Singapore. Geography skews transatlantic, with holdings in the United States, Sweden, Singapore and the United Kingdom — a deliberate attempt to capture the best electrochemistry talent regardless of jurisdiction. The platform includes a venture-builder group company, Prosemino, which provides hard-tech founders with laboratory access, technical mentorship and pre-seed capital — functioning as a proprietary origination engine that feeds the main fund. In October 2025 the firm convened its invite-only Conversations in Climate Tech event, asking whether LFP chemistry had definitively won the battery race, a signal that its community-building effort doubles as a deal-sourcing and market-intelligence function. Headcount remains undisclosed. Energy Revolution Ventures’ structural differentiator is the venture-builder appendage: rather than sourcing purely from the open market, the firm co-creates companies inside Prosemino’s lab infrastructure, giving it an early look at IP before it hits the broader seed circuit. That hybrid model — part financier, part incubator — concentrates its risk on a narrow thesis but gives it sequencing rights that generalist climate funds rarely command.

Frequently asked questions

What investment stages does Energy Revolution Ventures target?

The firm concentrates on seed and Series A rounds, occasionally participating in follow-on financings. Its portfolio companies — including Anthro Energy, Quino Energy and Oort Energy — were backed at the earliest institutional stage, reflecting a commitment to underwriting technical risk before commercial proof points arrive.

Which sectors does Energy Revolution Ventures explicitly avoid?

ERV does not invest in software-only climate solutions or in project-finance plays that lack a proprietary hardware differentiator. The firm’s published portfolio is exclusively electrochemical, and no downstream energy-trading platforms, carbon-offset marketplaces or asset-heavy project developers appear in its disclosed holdings.

How does Energy Revolution Ventures source proprietary deal flow?

A meaningful portion of origination runs through Prosemino, the venture-builder owned by the group. Prosemino houses hard-tech laboratories and shared technical staff, allowing the firm to co-develop companies from concept stage — giving it a first look at intellectual property before the wider seed market sees it.

Does Energy Revolution Ventures participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?

ERV deploys primarily through direct equity and selective co-investments. No publicly available data indicates that it operates as a fund-of-funds or significant LP in third-party venture vehicles; its capital appears to flow straight into the operating companies it selects.

What is Energy Revolution Ventures’ known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?

The firm has not disclosed a formal co-investment program, but its strategy — concentrated on capital-intensive electrochemical hardware — suggests it welcomes syndication with like-minded deep-tech funds and corporate venture arms to meet the working-capital needs of its companies. Its public events, such as the October 2025 Conversations in Climate Tech, serve as a curated meeting point for potential co-investors.
