  • Glentra Capital raises DKK 5.93 billion to invest in renewable energy Danish private equity firm Glentra Capital has successfully closed its debut fund, raising DKK 5.93 billion (approx. €795 million) to acquire six to seven energy companies across Europe and North America. Investors include Scandinavian, UK, US, and Canadian institutions, with strong backing from Novo Holdings and PKA. Partner Steen Lønberg Jørgensen calls the milestone “a proud achievement, especially in a period when many first-time funds have struggled to raise capital.” The fundraising process started in 2023 amid a challenging market environment influenced by geopolitics and global uncertainty. Glentra Capital has already deployed a significant portion of the capital into renewable energy and battery storage companies, including DVP Solar, Third Pillar Solar, Kyoto Group AS, and energyRe. The remaining funds are earmarked for two to three additional acquisitions expected by summer 2026. The fund aims to focus on projects in renewable energy generation, battery storage, and electrification, targeting growth companies that support the transition to greener and more resilient energy systems. Steen Lønberg Jørgensen adds: “We see strong opportunities in electrification and battery storage, which are critical to balancing renewable energy supply and demand while creating new markets for green electricity.”

  • Impilo acquires Oticon Medical from Demant in a deal worth up to DKK 600 million Danish hearing technology group Demant has agreed to sell its hearing implant division, Oticon Medical, to Swedish private equity firm Impilo in a deal valued at up to DKK 600 million.

Oticon Medical has shown solid growth in recent years and recently expanded its portfolio with the launch of its flagship product, Sentio. Demant CEO Søren Nielsen says the company will ensure a smooth transition for customers, patients, and employees as the division becomes part of Impilo’s growing healthcare investment portfolio.

  • Arevo raises €7.3 million to expand bio-based fertiliser production and strengthen its board Swedish agtech company Arevo has raised €7.3 million to accelerate the scale-up of its bio-based fertiliser production and expand internationally. The funding round includes continued support from Industrifonden, Fort Knox Förvaring AB, Navigare Ventures, and Stora Enso, all of whom also participated in Arevo’s previous €6.8 million round. Arevo develops arginine phosphate, a bio-based fertiliser that helps soil retain nutrients more effectively while reducing nitrogen leakage and greenhouse gas emissions. The company aims to provide a sustainable alternative to traditional nitrogen-based fertilisers, which currently account for around five percent of global emissions, nearly twice that of aviation. Alongside the funding, Arevo has strengthened its board with several new members, including Maria Wetterstrand, former leader of Sweden’s Green Party and CEO of Miltton Europe. Her expertise in sustainability and EU policy will be essential as the company navigates stricter climate and environmental regulations in the agricultural sector. With this new capital and an expanded leadership team, Arevo is preparing to move from pilot to industrial-scale production. The company continues its mission to make fertiliser production more sustainable and support the global transition toward low-emission agriculture.
