Summary
Arroyo Energy Investment Partners is seeking to raise $900m for its fifth flagship fund, targeting midmarket energy infrastructure investments as rising US electricity demand creates opportunities across power generation and fuel infrastructure, according to The Wall Street Journal. The target for Arroyo Investors Fund V reportedly exceeds the $680m raised for its predecessor, which closed last year alongside $385m in co-investment capital. The Texas-based firm manages approximately $4bn and is also targeting around $500m in co-investments for the latest vehicle.

Arroyo typically invests between $100m and $300m per transaction, focusing on operating or near-complete energy infrastructure assets, including liquefied natural gas facilities, power generation businesses and natural gas pipelines. The strategy reportedly targets midmarket operators benefiting from increased electricity consumption driven by AI data centres, domestic manufacturing and electrification.

The firm's track record includes the sale of Life Cycle Power, a provider of portable natural gas-fired electricity generation, to Partners Group in 2025. Arroyo had invested $355m in Life Cycle Power through its third flagship fund and generated a gross return of 2.9x invested capital on the transaction. Arroyo also reportedly invested $179m in LNG infrastructure operator Seaside LNG, alongside $149m from co-investors.

Arroyo reported an aggregate net return of 1.7x invested capital across its funds through March 2026. Its latest fundraising presentation identified five prospective transactions involving approximately $875m of fund capital, alongside potential co-investments, spanning LNG facilities, power installations and natural gas pipelines across the US.
