Asia

We take control positions in sustainable greenfield energy infrastructure projects and portfolios which provide essential services and benefit from predictable, long-term contracted cash flows. We leverage our strong regional networks to form and invest through dedicated platforms and joint ventures with local partners. Our particular focus lies on scaling renewable energy (wind, solar, distributed generation) and energy efficiency projects (such as heating, cooling, lighting, and waste-to-energy solutions) in Southeast Asian countries where these sectors are nascent but urgently needed.

Our intricate knowledge of local conditions in the target markets – being the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, and Laos – allows us to invest in places that are often overlooked by international capital. In collaboration with our partners (local developers and other sector specialists), and supported by our investors which include a number of multilateral banks and development finance institutions, we are operating at the forefront of the energy transition in Southeast Asia where our investments set precedents and have a direct impact.

Investing in relatively less mature markets requires active management of the development, construction, and operation of greenfield projects to ensure high-quality, bankable assets. By supporting local developers with our longstanding energy transition expertise, we seek to plug existing knowledge gaps, improve project quality, and ultimately enhance asset values.

We employ a comprehensive Environmental and Social Management System (“ESMS”), the outputs of which flow directly into investment, construction, and offtake agreements. The ESMS furthermore structures the monitoring of development, construction and operational processes and ensures transparent, regular reporting of findings and risk mitigation measures taken.
