TPG Rise Climate, the climate investment platform of the American alternative asset manager TPG (formerly known as Texas Pacific Group), has taken over Aurora Energy Research, a British market research and consultancy firm.
Closure is expected in the second half of 2025, subject to usual approvals and closing conditions.
“As part of the transaction, the existing private equity financiers of the company, CGE partners, 22c Capital, and Aurora CEO John Feddersen, will make significant reinvestments in the company,” the company said in a statement. “By using TPG’s extensive resources and expertise, Aurora will be well positioned to enter the next phase of growth and innovation, while he can directly promote the mission and investment objectives of both the company and the Rise Climate Fund and immediately promote the mission and investment objectives.”
At the end of April 2025, Bloomberg reported that London-based Private Equity company CGE Partners is considering a GBP 1 billion sale of Aurora Energy Research, which acquired it in 2020.
In a similar step earlier this year, BlackRock said that the Preqin has taken over, an independent supplier of data about private markets.
In 2020, TPG Matrix launched in Spain through its impact fund, the Rise Fund, after the acquisition of 1 GW of Trina Solar projects in Spain, Chile, Colombia and Mexico.
