Together, we deliver the energy transition
Ikigai supports infrastructure investors and operators to de-risk prospective ‘stranded assets’, to optimise their asset and improve their profitability while decarbonising their operations.
We believe it is important to create the right financial conditions around the technologies supporting the energy transition and create bankable projects for institutional investors.
We aim to create the cash flow today for the infrastructure of tomorrow.
Energy transition advisor and co-developer
Ikigai has three main complementary business lines:
A strategic and bankability consultancy to institutional and strategic investors and large energy consumers to decarbonize their operations, optimize their current infrastructure, and reduce stranded asset risk.
A development platform that delivers holistic, onsite energy solutions to large energy-intensive industries and critical national infrastructure owners. Ikigai structures, co-develops, funds, and manages the development of projects working collaboratively with our clients. The solutions are delivered either off-balance sheet or on a fully funded basis through specialized investors.
A bankability accelerator for technically proven, but not yet commercially-scaled, energy transition-focused technologies.

生き甲斐 (Pronounced [iki-gai]): Reason for living
Ikigai is a Japanese philosophy that encapsulates why we founded this business. The four pillars of ikigai represent the foundations on which our holistic, bankability-led approach to accelerating the energy transition is built: passion, mission, profession and vocation.
Together with our core stakeholders – investors, industry, and technology – we are helping large energy users move towards more sustainable, more resilient, and ultimately more profitable energy solutions.

" IKIGAI has been the catalyst for AGS Airports to understand how the daunting task of decarbonizing our operations, and that of our industry, can be achieved in a pragmatic and cost-effective mechanism. Bankability means risk identification, mitigation, and allocation to the best party that can manage that risk, creating the conditions for institutional investors to fund the technology. "
