Asian institutional investors interest in the renewable energy sector won't be waning anytime soon, according to Octopus Investments, which found that 22% of investors are planning to increase their allocations to the sector by more than 20%. "The key investment drivers for Asian institutions are the opportunity to diversify from volatile financial markets, benefit from long-term yields and to fulfil Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria," Hiti Singh, head of institutional funds at Octopus Investments, told Asian Power.
