What we do

Established in 2001, Conchubar is a group of associated entities spanning infrastructure, investments related to energy, and climate, with an emphasis on emerging markets across Asia.

Infrastructure

Conchubar supports infrastructure project development from origination to structuring to financing — spanning power as well as related sectors such as chemicals and data. Engagements are flexibly structured, ranging from advisory services to early-stage investment and development.

Past work ranges from one of Southeast Asia's largest waste gas power and credits projects, to large-scale petrochemicals plant optimization and development, to structuring a national-scale blue economy lattice for coastal communities and mangrove conservation across sites in the southern and central Philippines.

Infrastructure · Singapore

We have assisted in the structuring and financing of a US$2.5 billion naphtha cracker facility in Singapore for the state-of-the-art production of aromatics and fuels, displacing more polluting and inefficient legacy plants in the region.

Investments

Conchubar has periodically launched private equity funds supporting national industrial policy-related infrastructure in emerging markets.

Conchubar was engaged in the development of one of Southeast Asia's largest multi-billion-dollar chemical plants — from development and financing through to operational completion and its successful restructuring to overcome unexpected macro instability that had roiled the global sector.

Both of Conchubar's funds have been fully invested and successfully concluded. At present, there is no planned launch of a third fund.

Investments · Private equity

Conchubar's private equity funds have successfully raised, closed and exited investments in renewables, energy, and chemicals. Equity, in both its monetary and fairness definitions, could both be served by providing an orderly conduit for sustainability investment flows.

Investments · Thailand · Southeast Asia

With the vast wealth of agriwaste resources, we engage in the development and financing of biofuels and biomass power projects from rice-husk-fired biomass projects in central Thailand to second- and third-generation biofuels projects in Southeast Asia.

Climate

Conchubar's climate practice has been a pioneer in carbon finance since 2001 — from its initial support of Bioassets' first Amazon REDD+ credits in Brazil, to its work in Asia CDM projects from India to China to Southeast Asia.

Conchubar has from its very roots interwoven financial and commercial performance with sustainability, economic development, and local community stakeholder engagement — including work with communities to revitalize severely degraded former palm plantation lands in Borneo.

Climate · Coastal communities

Waste management is an increasingly pressing challenge in emerging economies, especially with respect to its impact on coastal communities. Our wastewater work ranges from industrial wastewater to municipal systems.

Degraded former palm plantation land in Borneo

Climate · Indonesia

We are engaged across several hundred thousand hectares of severely degraded former palm plantation lands in West Kalimantan, towards a community-linked structure which supplies commercially profitable biofuels and feedstock while revitalizing the land within sustainability metrics.

Joint Enterprises

Coordinating through its core dedicated team, Conchubar works closely with international and local partner enterprises across specialized technical sectors — including data centers, waste management, and industrial AI optimization.

Our members frequently speak and lecture at professional events and academic conferences. We also engage in capacity-building activities ranging from media events to working with indigenous groups for forestry conservation in Mexico.
