Mr. Fitzgerald has spent his entire career in the electric and natural gas industry as a lawyer, senior business executive and now operating partner with our LPs and portfolio companies. As head of Troutman Sanders’ utility practice, Mr. Fitzgerald assisted C-suite executives in transformative new business growth opportunities, including TEP’s New Energy Ventures sale to AES for 15x invested capital, and the structuring and sale of International Transmission Company to KKR for 3x return.

Ultimately, his work led to the company’s sale to Exelon, resulting in a 40% premium to shareholders.
