The Fund exceeded its investment target by raising USD 3 billion in capital commitments. The Fund’s strategy exploits the exponential demand for new renewable energy infrastructure assets. It targets sustainable investments in accordance with Article 9 of SFDR that seek to support decarbonisation in the transition to Net Zero, regularly assessing climate impacts, metrics and risks and will invest in the next generation of renewable energy sectors; solar PV, battery storage, renewable power, energy efficiency or lower carbon fuel supply including solutions for power-to-X applications, and grid and technology solutions that support decarbonization over-time.
Capital raised as part of the Fund will be used to support renewable energy projects. Some of the deals of the Fund include the acquisition of PurposeEnergy, an established US-based renewable fuels and biogas specialist, focused on waste solutions for the food and beverage industries, the Supernode Storage Project, a 750MW battery energy storage system (BESS) in Australia, a US based developer of sustainable infrastructure solutions for hyperscale data centre operators with a portfolio of both contracted and development stage campuses diversified across the US to host next-generation, mission critical, hyperscale data centres.
