Berkeley Energy, a UK private equity firm that focuses on renewable energy infrastructure investments, has raised €50.7 million for an Asian renewable energy fund, the firm said in a statement.
The Renewable Energy Asia Fund will back renewable energy projects in India and other developing countries in Asia. It will make equity investments between €5 million and €15 million in size in development-stage renewable energy projects and technology, focusing on wind, small hydro, biomass and solar power opportunities.
The fund’s six backers include UK development finance group CDC, which committed €10 million to the fund.
