We are Groendus

On 1 March 2021, Groendus was born. Although we're the first to admit we’re a young company, we’re certainly no newbies. Groendus was born out of eight specialised companies active across solar business projects, smart metering services, innovative charging solutions, sustainable energy procurement and intelligent energy control. By joining forces, we are forging ahead with the energy transition.

Each day that we work together, we are honing the energy system of the future. This is something we MUST do to keep our planet alive. And it also presents our customers with some brilliant business opportunities. Our extensive knowledge of this sector means we are uniquely positioned to guide businesses in making their energy usage more sustainable in every respect.

Our operations are based in the Creative Valley, just a 1 minute from Utrecht Central Station. Today, the Groendus team is made up of over 250 driven and enthusiastic colleagues who are proud to take our mission to market. Want to take your place in the energy company of the future?

Two wealthy investors support Groendus with our ambitious long-term vision for the energy transition. Pension provider APG and Canadian OMERS Infrastructure are Groendus’ two champions. They drive us ever forward, improving and expanding our services as we go.

APG

Thanks to pension administrator APG, the government and education pension fund ABP has a 50% stake in Groendus. APG is an active global infrastructure investor, supporting companies working on renewable energy sources and innovative solutions for the energy transition. Jan-Willem Ruisbroek, Head of Infrastructure Investment Strategy at APG, says: "Our investment in Groendus is a rare opportunity to do our bit to accelerate the Dutch energy transition. It offers sound returns, ​​but more than this, it facilitates an acceleration and scale up of the energy transition, while also furthering UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s).”

OMERS Infrastructure

OMERS Infrastructure also holds a 50% stake in Groendus and invests on behalf of OMERS, one of the largest pension funds in Canada. Alastair Hall, Senior Managing Director and Head of Europe at OMERS Infrastructure, says: "Groendus presented an excellent opportunity to invest in an organisation with great growth potential. A company that is making a significant contribution to the energy transition and which is making commercial, industrial, and public organisations more sustainable. Alongside APG, we look forward to playing an active role in the future of the company and advising the leadership team at Groendus on accelerated growth and achieving the ultimate goal; 100% clean energy for all. ”
