The Company

Critical energy market decisions require accurate, in-depth intelligence. Established in 2013 by University of Oxford professors and economists who saw the need for a deeper focus on quality analysis, Aurora has grown to become the largest dedicated power market analytics company in Europe, providing data-driven intelligence for strategic decisions in the global energy transformation through forecasts, reports, software solutions, forums and bespoke consultancy services.

Aurora operates in Europe, APAC, LATAM and the US and has a diverse team of 900 experts from energy, financial and consulting backgrounds, covering power, hydrogen, carbon and fossil commodities.

The firm is active in Europe, APAC, LATAM and the US. Over the past five years, Aurora has advised on over 200 transactions, exceeding €30 billion in total deal value.

CGE’s Investment

In 2020, CGE backed the Founder and CEO, Dr John Feddersen, and the existing management team in the transaction, bringing together key resources and expertise to support the company in its next phase of growth, including M&A, international expansion and new product development initiatives.

Since CGE’s initial investment, Aurora has evolved from a UK-based advisory firm into a global software and data analytics platform, trusted by institutions across five continents. Under CGE’s sponsorship, the business has significantly expanded its international footprint, launched operations in over 10 new markets, and now offers full coverage of all major US power regions.

Aurora continues to scale with a focus on software innovation, operational excellence, and high-quality recurring revenue.

Aurora’s Purpose

To enable the global energy transition through rigorous quantitative analysis of energy markets.

CGE and 22C have been transformative partners for Aurora, supporting our evolution from a UK-focused firm into a global software and data analytics platform at the heart of the energy transition. We look forward to working together with TPG Rise Climate to continue innovating for our clients and deepening our impact in energy markets worldwide.
