Coriance
Located throughout France and Belgium, Coriance operates a portfolio of 41 district heating concessions, delivering heat to residential, social and commercial buildings. Coriance serves a broad customer base across public and private sectors, including housing managers, schools, universities, hospitals, municipal buildings and industrial sites. Most of its revenues are generated from long-term heat contracts which typically have a duration of 20-30 years.
Under our ownership, Coriance instilled a robust health and safety culture through its health and safety action plan. This plan decreased accident frequency rates by 80% since the acquisition. As part of our drive to encourage strong governance, Coriance’s operational structure was improved through several digitisation initiatives that enhanced performance, sales effectiveness and customer experience. It also successfully drove sustainable savings across energy purchasing, G&A and personnel to improve long-term profitability.
Over the investment period, Coriance’s win rates quadrupled, and market share rose from 5% to 8%. This resulted from the organisation's strategic restructuring, rigorous internal tender processes, and divestment of non-core services segments.
In 2019, Coriance expanded into the industrial heating market by acquiring the Commentry biomass cogeneration plant to support the local food processing industry. Coriance is now considered the greenest player in the French district heating market, resulting from 69% of its fuel mix deriving from renewable sources.

Ferngas
Ferngas (FS Deutsche Gastransport Holding GmbH) owns and operates a regulated gas network in Southern and Eastern Germany. The business was formed in 2017 following the merger between two gas distribution networks, acquired separately by EDIF I in 2013 and 2014. The business’s 3,063km network of high-pressure pipelines supplies 62TWh of natural gas and biogas annually to more than 60 downstream network operators and 120 direct end-consumers. It is the only combined network operator in Germany to operate both a long-distance pipeline and a distribution network, resulting in its reputation as an innovative and reliable service provider.
Aided by us, Ferngas repeatedly achieved sector-leading operation performance. The ongoing capex programmes, most notably the EGL 442 pipeline redevelopment programme, resulted in significant regulated asset base growth for the company. Beyond company growth, core commitments to environmental, health and safety standards have resulted in zero accidents or leakage incidents in the last five years.
Ferngas has become Germany’s only combined gas transmission and distribution grid operator, strengthening its regulatory status. During Igneo’s investment, Ferngas increased biogas connections and contributed to the first nationwide hydrogen infrastructure project, cementing itself as a critical player in the German gas distribution market.
