The value of long-term investment by infra funds into infrastructure and energy assets is a central theme in this latest episode of the Infra Dig podcast.
IJGlobal content director Angus Leslie Melville speaks with Hamish Lea-Wilson, a partner at Igneo Infrastructure Partners, who plays a key role in the fund manager’s origination and execution of European infra investment opportunities.
Conversation ranges from an insightful run-through how a long-term approach to infrastructure investments achieves value and virtue, before running through a slew of Igneo managed assets.
A good bit of the podcast is dedicated to German utilities company MVV which won the excellence trophy at the IJGlobal ESG Awards 2023 for its plan to be “climate positive” by 2035. Judges described the Mannheim company as “a poster child for energy transition in a utility”.
Another winner that discussed is Nordion Energi – this one picking up a trophy at the IJGlobal ESG Awards 2022 – which involved the transition a traditional, natural gas distribution operator to become what some people have described as “the go-to partner” in Sweden’s energy transition.
Conversation moves on to a focus on Igneo IP’s Finerge renewables platform in the Iberian peninsula which, since 2015, has grown that portfolio from 642MW of attributable capacity to almost 2GW.
The podcast rounds off with a closer look at Enfinium which recently announced that it was investing in CCS technology to decarbonise unrecyclable waste and generate more than 90MW of baseload, carbon-negative power.
