Overview of the Role:

Clean Energy Infra manages funds that invest in renewable power generation assets in Europe, US and APAC. The funds are invested in a mix of capital appreciation and cash flow generative assets. Investments include assets in operation, construction and development in three main areas: wind, solar, and biomass.

In 2019, leverage from the successes in the equity space, Clean Energy Infra launched a credit fund which sought to achieve stable, risk-adjusted returns through exposure to portfolios of renewable energy project finance debt.
