Investor interest in large-scale greenfield energy infrastructure remains strong as Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) nears the completion of fundraising for its CI V fund. The fund is focused on supporting the energy transition across multiple technologies, including wind, solar photovoltaic (PV), and battery storage, in low-risk Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries across Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific.
Total commitments have exceeded the target of € 12 billion, excluding capital raised for co-investments. CI V has already made six final investment decisions, committing 60% of the fund. With ownership of over 50 development-stage projects representing a potential investment volume of € 24 billion, the fund is expected to be fully committed within the next year. It is projected to add 30 GW of new energy capacity to the global grid.
