Pangaea Life Blue Energy

Here you will find information about our renewable energy fund.

What is the unique selling proposition (USP)?

Pangaea Life Blue Energy delivers performance and climate protection through renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and water. Investment contributions flow into the performance-oriented Pangaea Life Blue Energy Fund, which invests in projects for renewable energy generation and energy storage (e.g., wind and hydropower, photovoltaics, and battery storage).

How does the fund generate returns?

The fund's return consists of two components: regular income from sustainable energy production through wind, hydropower, and solar energy, and valuation changes of fair market values. Simply put, returns come from actual energy generation and sales, as well as long-term assumptions about future energy production and sales.

The technical and geographical diversification of the tangible assets, along with partially fixed electricity purchase agreements and feed-in tariffs, ensures steady returns—independent of high volatility in stock markets. The tangible assets are valued at fair market value based on appropriate valuation models and current market conditions.

What is the target return?

The goal of Pangaea Life Blue Energy is to generate an attractive and stable return in the future market of renewable energy. We aim for a target return of 5–7% p.a. after fund costs.

Who is the fund and asset manager?

Pangaea Life draws on the expertise of the Commerzbank Group and Aquila Capital Investmentgesellschaft mbH, based in Hamburg, to select real asset investments and optimally structure the fund. The BaFin-regulated capital management company employs over 200 experienced professionals who invest in essential real assets with a focus on the energy transition, sustainable infrastructure, and stable, long-term returns. Aquila Capital Investmentgesellschaft has been part of the Commerzbank Group since June 2024. The partnership offers additional stability in terms of a long-term successful fund strategy.
