The Fund will focus on high-impact sectors including clean molecules, energy storage, e-fuels, smart mobility, renewables, and green data centers. Templewater will leverage its global partner network and technical expertise to localise scalable, innovative solutions within Oman – aligned with FFO's mandate to stimulate the national economy, foster strategic investment partnerships, and unlock economic value for the Sultanate and investors.

This initiative reflects OIA's value as a long-term investment partner, adding strategic insight, de-risking capabilities, and deep regional access to unlock institutional-grade opportunities. The Fund also contributes to Oman's ambition to position itself as a clean energy hub and a destination for future-focused global capital.

The Fund has been structured to generate healthy and sustainable financial returns while contributing to positive climate impact. Built as a platform to mobilize further investment, the Fund aims to co-develop commercially viable energy transition projects. With a long-term growth trajectory, it will scale as it identifies projects aligned with the Sultanate's climate targets and industrial development goals.

His Excellency Abdulsalam Al Murshidi, President of OIA, affirmed that this partnership represents a key strategic step in positioning the Sultanate of Oman as a regional and global hub for clean and renewable energy solutions. "OIA seeks to attract expertise and global best practices to support Oman's ambition to become a leading exporter of clean molecules and renewable energy solutions," he said.

Cliff Zhang, Chairman and CEO of Templewater, said: "We are honored to partner with FFO to co-develop flagship energy transition projects and localize cutting-edge technologies. This Fund reflects not only our commitment to investing in solutions that deliver financial returns and climate benefits, but also our confidence in Oman's supportive forward-looking environment. Templewater will establish a local presence in Muscat to work closely with our partners at FFO and OIA, setting an example for others across the region."

Oman has emerged as a frontrunner in global energy transition and as a strategic hub for clean energy and advanced manufacturing, underpinned by landmark export deals with major international players. With a stable investment climate, pro-business regulatory framework, and a strategic location at the crossroads of global trade, the Sultanate offers strong fundamentals for long term partnerships and capital deployment.

This launch builds on Templewater's successful track record in energy transition and decarbonization. As a specialist investor driving the future of energy and industry across Asia, Templewater draws on its strong heritage in green technology and manufacturing, integrating deep industrial know-how with global financial, professional services, and technical expertise.

The Fund provides a governance-ready, de-risked platform for investors seeking exposure to Oman's energy transition. Templewater and FFO will continue to identify and co-develop high-growth commercial opportunities aligned with the Sultanate's national vision and net-zero roadmap.
