Why there is klimaVest

Our vision and mission statement

Timo Werner, klimaVest fund manager since launch in 2020

Europe’s energy systems are undergoing the most profound change since industrialisation. Now we need responsibility to rethink and act directly on generation, supply and infrastructure.

klimaVest has been investing specifically in renewable energies for over 5 years: photovoltaic and wind power plants, transmission networks and, in the future, storage solutions.

Because we are actively shaping and driving the transformation of energy systems.
Because we are promoting the performance and future viability of Europe’s energy supply.
Because we make a concrete contribution to the energy transition by using natural resources.

klimaVest not only ensures long-term growth with long-term purchase agreements, but also makes a valuable contribution to enabling resilient energy systems and long-term sustainable supply. This makes klimaVest an investment independent of stock market fluctuations and a future-proof custody account component for demanding strategies for investment by private investors.

An investment in real values for transformation and the future. For real participation in the energy market of tomorrow.

The first investments

Germany and France. klimaVest is starting portfolio management with six wind farms. The investments have long-term feed-in tariffs and form the foundation for continuous portfolio construction.

Dive into the portfolio

Our entry into France

Tout Vent wind farm. With 20 years of feed-in tariffs and favourable wind conditions, Tout Vent has developed into one of the most profitable plants and today hosts an innovative pilot project for intelligent bat protection.

The year of the sun

Agri-PV and Sweden. With our first agri-PV project development in Germany, we are opening up a new market segment that combines energy production and agriculture in one area. In parallel, the company entered the Swedish market with two photovoltaic projects.

Wind and sun in one location

Cadiz solar farm. The Cartuja solar power plant is already in operation and feeding electricity into the grid. In the future, the site could be expanded with a wind power project to a hybrid site - this would double the existing grid connection and significantly increase efficiency.

The klimaVest team of experts

klimaVest is backed by a lean, specialised team consisting of fund management, asset management and technology. We make targeted use of the expertise and infrastructure of the Commerz Real Group¹ - for active management with controlled costs.

The benefits to you:

Experience and know-how of an established institution - with the efficient structures of focused fund management.

A man in a grey suit stands in front of a structured, weathered wall and smiles into the camera.

Since 2015, I have worked as a fund manager at Commerz Real and am responsible for transactions in renewable energies, infrastructure and real estate - total volume over 4 billion euros. I helped develop klimaVest from the initial idea to the launch of the fund and today manage the capital of over 30,000 investors.

With my team, I am responsible for the operation of klimaVest plants - from wind and solar to hybrid plants. Each technology has its own particularities, each European market has its own requirements. Our job is to ensure that everything runs smoothly and that every system performs optimally.

I ensure that each investment meets the Fund’s sustainability criteria, from the point of view of taxonomy alignment and compliance with the exclusion criteria - from purchase to operation to modernisation. As a PhD impact investing expert with over ten years of transactional experience, I ensure that klimaVest consistently achieves its sustainability goals, in particular compliance with its taxonomy quota.

Dr Laura Haidl

Head of Group Strategy & Sustainability

My task is to find the right electricity marketing strategy for each plant. The majority of our portfolio is through government tariffs or long-term PPAs (Power Purchase Agreements)⁶ at a fixed price. We actively market the rest via the stock exchange - adapted to market conditions and investment profile. Through continuous market analysis, I ensure that klimaVest is earnings-oriented and at the same time solidly positioned.

Luxembourg location - In the heart of Europe

klimaVest was launched as an ELTIF (European Long-Term Investment Fund) in Luxembourg - and for good reasons: Luxembourg is considered Europe’s leading fund location with one of the most experienced supervisory authorities for investment funds, the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).

For investors, this means: klimaVest is subject to strict European regulatory standards for investor protection and transparency. At the same time, the fund benefits from its geographical location in the heart of Europe - ideal for investments in wind, solar and grid infrastructure across six European countries.

The combination of a proven regulatory framework, stable legal regime and central location makes Luxembourg the optimal location for a pan-European energy fund such as klimaVest.
