De Gaulle Fleurance represented the investment fund, PEARL INFRASTRUCTURE CAPITAL II in connection with the merger control proceedings before the Competition Authority, in the context of the acquisition of EP – Energy Pool Investissement.
As part of a capital increase of several tens of millions of euros, Pearl Infrastructure Capital II, an investment fund dedicated to infrastructure and systems related to the energy transition and the circular economy, has become the majority shareholder of Energy Pool, a French greentech player and leader in energy flexibility and energy consumption optimization.
The acquisition was approved unconditionally by the Competition Authority in a decision dated October 8th 2025.
This fourth investment by PEARL INFRASTRUCTURE CAPITAL II reinforces its strategy of focusing on investments in decarbonization, bringing stability and flexibility to electricity generation and networks, with a strong position in European energy markets and specifically serving industrial companies.
In this case, Thierry Titone, associate lawyer, and Caroline Ruiz Palmer, senior counsel manager, advised the PEARL INFRASTRUCTURE CAPITAL II investment fund.
“This decision marks an important step in the development of European players capable of responding to the challenges of energy system flexibility. We are delighted to have supported Pearl Infrastructure Capital II in this landmark transaction in support of the energy transition,” said Thierry Titone, associate lawyer at De Gaulle Fleurance.
