Environment & Energy

Recycling, renewables, water and environmental analytics. The energy transition and stricter rules create demand for many years.

In environment and energy, buyers look for businesses that already show their work is needed. Permits, steady customers and an experienced team count especially.

That is exactly what I look at before I approach you. And I only get in touch when an investor is a genuine fit for your company.

Four segments I follow closely

Waste and recycling companies with permits and their own facilities. Those who bring materials back into the cycle are increasingly interesting to buyers.

  • Commercial and industrial waste
  • Metal and plastics recycling
  • Construction and demolition waste
  • Hazardous waste
  • Container services

Environmental Testing & Labs

Laboratories and consultants for soil, water, air and pollutants. Statutory testing duties make the business predictable.

  • Environmental laboratories
  • Pollutant assessments
  • Contaminated land and soil protection
  • Emission and immission measurement
  • Drinking water analysis

Why this market is consolidating

The energy transition, the circular economy and stricter environmental rules create long-term demand. Many businesses are regionally rooted and fairly small. Buyers combine them into larger units that make better use of permits, facilities and skilled staff.
