Volery Capital Partners

Volery Capital Partners is a private equity firm that seeks to generate alpha for its investors by investing in high-performing financial services companies that benefit people and the planet. Volery makes growth equity investments in sub-sectors including asset management, specialty and consumer finance, insurance and benefits, and related business services and technologies. Volery’s investments are thematically focused within energy transition, resource efficiency, education and workforce development, and financial inclusion and well-being.

The firm is headquartered in Greenwich, Connecticut, and has a global investment focus, including regions such as the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Volery Capital Partners was acquired by Sustainable Development Capital LLP in November 2023, creating a combined platform that manages over US$2 billion of assets across more than 50 investments worldwide. This acquisition strengthens SDCL’s position as a leading energy efficiency investment platform serving commercial and industrial customers.

The Volery team, led by Managing Partner Emanuel Citron, continues to oversee SDCL’s private equity business, focusing on high-ROI, proven technology, software, and services solutions that enhance the performance of existing real energy assets, reduce energy demand, and grow the opportunity for “behind the meter” solutions. The combined firm aims to provide capital to growth-stage technology, software, and services companies poised to scale rapidly, supporting SDCL customers in benefiting from cleaner, cheaper, and more resilient energy solutions.
