    Founder buys back Alive Capital, targets regional energy expansion

    Published on

    Transaction restores full control to Omnia Capital, accelerating growth and integration across Southeast Europe

    Alive Capital, an integrated energy services and supply platform in Southeast Europe, will return to the full ownership of its founder, Giacomo Billi, following the transfer of Premier Energy’s majority stake to Omnia Capital B.V., the investment holding controlled by Giacomo Billi. 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 B.V. 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.

    Alive Capital operates a fully integrated energy platform covering generation, supply, aggregation, dispatching, forecasting, optimization, operations and maintenance, and asset management. 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 optimization 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 designed to support system flexibility and long-term energy security.

    “The energy market in Southeast Europe is entering a phase where integration, flexibility and digitalization 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.

    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.

    “I thank the Premier Energy team for the partnership over the past years. We built an important phase of Alive Capital’s development together, and I am confident our professional relationship will continue going forward,” Giacomo Billi said.

    In the transaction, Omnia Capital B.V. is advised by the law firm Tuca, Zbarcea si Asociatii.
