Energy Innovation Fund
Focused on renewable energy generation, the Fund prioritizes investments in Energy Communities, a segment recently introduced through European and portuguese legislation.
Energy Communities enable the exploration of the entire electricity business value chain—from generation (using solar plants) to distribution and delivery to end consumers.

The fund’s management team leverages extensive experience in the renewable energy sector to access exclusive investment opportunities. Each project undergoes rigorous financial, technical, and legal due diligence, with investments secured through equipment and power supply contracts.
Plural Gestora de Ativos has established a strategic partnership with a pioneering company in this segment, recognized as Portugal’s largest entity in the development and operational management of Renewable Energy Communities.
The fund’s investment model offers significant advantages over traditional solar energy generation, where 100% of sales are made to the national grid operator company at a “wholesale” value, approximately 30-40% of the final consumer price, and with no waiting time for connection to the national grid (currently up to five years) by utilizing local connections (medium and low voltage rather than high voltage).
More importantly, Energy Communities operate with a highly competitive cost structure compared to large electricity distribution companies that compete with the end customer, namely:
The connection by network is only local, which allows this type of business model to save on long-haul transmission tariffs (high voltage) which typically account for 50% of the final consumer price.
Portugal’s Renewable Energy Communities market is relatively recent, where there is not yet an excess of capital inflows driving up project acquisition costs.
Plural Asset Management believes this presents a prime investment opportunity to establish a strong position in this market segment, taking advantage of current high profitability rates.
High returns are expected to decline as future investors bring more capital into the sector, raising asset valuations.
