Priogen heads for sustainable growth with Gilde

Amsterdam, 21 March 2023 – Priogen welcomes Gilde Equity Management as its new growth partner. Priogen is an energy trading company and asset manager with a strong focus on renewable energy. Priogen’s highly skilled employees have extensive knowledge of various pan-European energy markets and are supported by complex proprietary algorithms fueled with big energy data and advanced weather forecasting. This enables Priogen to manage risks, maximize megawatt value, reduce CO2 emissions and help stabilize the grid. Priogen’s trading activities have an impressive long-term track record of outperforming the market.

Frank Hijmans, CEO of Priogen: “We are delighted to have a reputable investor like Gilde Equity Management as a new shareholder that is supporting us in our next phase of growth. We are looking forward to working together to jointly realize our ambitions and grow in various markets.”

Gerben Willems, Senior Partner at Gilde Equity Management: “We see an exciting road ahead for Priogen supported by market tailwinds as continued volatility in energy markets, driven by an increasing contribution of wind and solar energy, is expected to generate even more opportunities. With the investment in Priogen we continue to leverage on our extensive knowledge of the energy transition.”
