With strong portfolio optionality and high visibility on near-term investments, GMF II is on track to be fully committed within one to two years.

Niels Holst, Partner and Co – Head of Growth Markets Funds at CIP, said : “ Reaching a USD 3 billion final close and tripling the fund size compared to our predecessor fund is a strong validation of our Growth Markets strategy and of investors’ confidence in our ability to originate, develop, and build large – scale renewable energy projects. For GMF II, we have been successful in attracting a diverse group of LPs including sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, impact-focused family offices, and Development Finance Institutions (DFIs), in addition to re-ups from existing LPs, expanding our outreach across Asia, the Middle East, and North America.”

Increasing demand for new power infrastructure The strong investor interest in GMF II reflects the attractive fundamentals, the need for energy in the target markets, and the team’s proven track record in the first vintage of the fund. GMF I is now expected to deliver approximately 8.7GW of critical energy in India and South Africa across 50+ projects.

Ole Kjems Sørensen, Partner and Co – Head of Growth Markets Funds at CIP, said: “ With GMF II, we are building on our track record and expanding our ability to connect capital with high – quality renewable energy projects in select Growth Markets that have a fundamental need for new and reliable energy infrastructure. We are delivering a robust investment product to our LPs, targeting attractive risk-adjusted returns within a resilient asset class. ”

GMF II benefits from CIP’s extensive local presence and longstanding experience in developing and constructing greenfield energy infrastructure projects on a global scale.
