Alive Capital will return to full ownership of founder Giacomo Billi following the transfer of Premier Energy's majority stake to Omnia Capital, Billi's investment holding.
The transaction, subject to regulatory clearance from the Romanian Competition Council and the Commission for the Examination of Foreign Direct Investments, will result in Omnia Capital holding a 100% stake in Alive Capital.
The move marks the beginning of a new expansion phase focused on scaling renewable generation capacity, energy storage, digital energy services and regional market integration across Southeast Europe.
The company currently manages more than 1.5 GW of generation capacity across 198 power plants and supplied 1.95 TWh of electricity in 2025, with a 1.8% share of the Romanian non-household supply market as of November 2025. "Regaining full ownership gives us strategic clarity and execution agility. Our priority is to scale an integrated regional platform combining renewable generation, storage, energy supply and digital optimisation services for producers and end customers," said Giacomo Billi, Founder and CEO of Alive Capital.
Through its affiliated company Alive Energy, the group holds a renewable generation and storage portfolio of around 500 MW in operation and under construction in Romania, spanning wind, solar and battery storage projects. Premier Energy, controlled by Emma Capital, became the majority shareholder of Alive Capital in February 2022, supporting the company's operational consolidation and growth during a period of rapid market expansion.
"The energy market in Southeast Europe is entering a phase where integration, flexibility and digitalisation drive value. Our objective is to position Alive Capital as a leading regional platform capable of delivering stable, competitive and predictable energy solutions for customers across the region," Giacomo Billi added. In the transaction, Omnia Capital is advised by the law firm Țuca, Zbârcea și Asociații.
