David Leuschen, co-founder and Senior Managing Director of Riverstone Holdings, invests exclusively in the energy and power sectors across the entire value chain, including upstream exploration and production, midstream infrastructure, oilfield services, power generation, and renewable energy transition assets. The firm conducts both buyout and growth capital investments, having deployed over $40 billion into more than 200 deals since its 2000 founding. Notable portfolio companies include Enviva (the world’s largest industrial wood pellet producer), Talen Energy (pivoted to data-center power supply), and Reliance Industries’ North American shale position. Leuschen’s distinctive thesis is a pure-play focus on energy—never investing in healthcare, technology, or consumer sectors—distinguishing Riverstone from generalist buyout firms.
