ADEME Investissement

ADEME Investissement is a state-owned vehicle providing equity for innovative infrastructure projects central to the ecological transition. The firm targets initiatives across energy, sustainable mobility, circular economy, and environmental protection. It leverages ADEME's technical expertise, supporting emergent solutions during initial commercialization and accelerated deployment.

Established in December 2018, ADEME Investissement stemmed from the French government’s Programme d’investissements d’avenir, now part of France 2030. Its creation addressed a market gap: the high risk in funding early-stage or rapidly scaling ecological solutions, often deterring conventional private capital. The French state fully owns the corporation, positioning it as a strategic public instrument.

The company primarily serves enterprises developing groundbreaking technologies and infrastructure for environmental sustainability. ADEME Investissement acts as a catalyst, de-risking these projects to attract broader private investment. Its long-term vision is to accelerate the widespread adoption of French ecological innovations, domestically and internationally, fostering a robust ecosystem.
