Institutionalising investment in distributed infrastructure

摘要

Adramatic uptick in the inflow of institutional capital into platforms which offer finance for distributed infrastructure - including water and wastewater - reflects a growing belief that with the right model, the approach can generate meaningful returns. Generate Capital's announcement this month that it had secured more than $1 billion of funding for its sustain-able infrastructure investment platform comes hot on the heels of December's $156.5 million fund raise for Spring Lane Capital. Other distributed infrastruc-ture funding vehicles with an interest in water, such as Equilibrium Capital and Ultra Capital, have also attracted signifi-cant volumes of institutional capital.
