Breakthrough Energy Ventures (BEV), backed by Bill Gates, raises $839 million for the third climate fund
Breakthrough Energy Ventures (BEV), which is backed by Bill Gates, has raised $839 million for BEV III, its third flagship fund, according to a recent regulatory filing. This makes it the biggest climate fund to be closed in 2024 thus far.
The second fund, BEV II, closed in July 2023 after raising $1.25 billion in 2021. The company then established BEV III.
In 2016, the $1 billion mark was reached for its first fund, BEV I.
LPs have demonstrated a significant preference for early-stage climate funds, even as they withdraw from other sectors; nevertheless, the ultimate aim for the new fund is yet unknown.
