Equitix agrees to acquire a further stake in Viridor Energy

In further news today, Equitix is delighted to announce that with our partners including TCorp, we have agreed to acquire an additional stake in Viridor Energy from KKR.

This latest acquisition takes our combined shareholding to 35% of the business, co-owning 11 energy from waste sites around the UK and further bolstering our renewable energy portfolio as we support the UK’s transition to a green future.
 
Viridor Energy is a leading UK resource and waste management company, innovating in resource recovery and recycling practices while transforming waste for a climate-positive future.

TCorp is the financial services partner to the NSW public sector, providing best-in-class investment management, financial management solutions and advice.
 
By controlling the treatment of non-recyclable waste that would otherwise go to landfill, Viridor Energy plays a crucial role in decarbonisation efforts, having already avoided almost 1 million tonnes of carbon emissions. 
 
Congratulations to our partners and team for their hard work on this acquisition, especially to Aisha Hamid, CFAZainab Arshad MRICSAmy Coleman and Abhimanyu Verma.
