Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Falkor?
Président and Founder Pascal Pénicaud runs the firm. He draws on his tenure as managing director of Tenergie, where he oversaw the development of France's second-largest solar independent power producer. Benoit Decourt, Vice-President Hydrogen, leads the firm's push into green hydrogen and e-fuels. The firm has not disclosed additional investment committee members.
How does Falkor source its infrastructure projects?
Falkor relies on a combination of its principals' deep industry networks and its in-house engineering team. Pénicaud's track record at Tenergie and Decourt's academic and consulting background in hydrogen economics provide origination channels into European energy development. The firm does not market a proprietary proprietary data engine or a subscription-based originator network.
Does Falkor invest at the corporate level or only through project SPVs?
Both. The firm's website states it invests directly into companies as well as into special purpose vehicles created for individual energy projects. This two-track approach allows Falkor to supply growth equity to technology developers while also financing the construction of specific assets.
What is Falkor's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
Falkor positions itself as a direct investor drawing on shareholder and expert networks rather than a limited partner in third-party funds. It has not publicized any formal co-investment programs alongside institutional GPs or club-deal vehicles. The firm's marketing suggests it leads or originates its own transactions.
Where does Falkor invest geographically?
Falkor's website references supporting project deployment in France and globally. The principals' prior experience includes international renewable energy projects, and the firm's expertise in 'as a service' energy models is applicable across multiple European markets. It has not published a list of country-specific offices outside Marseille.
