EQUITIX Sustainable Financial Force Fuelling Transition

PRODUCTION: David Hill

A long-term investor, developer, and infrastructure fund manager, Equitix has been pivotal in the ongoing success of the energy transition. Involvement in some of the biggest and most important energy projects comes as a result of 16 years of building trust. MD Asset Management Nathan Wakefield talks to Energy Focus about the company’s opportunities going forward.

//Creating valuable propositions, with true return potential, has been both a challenge and opportunity in the renewable energy transition. Without money, the transition halts. Even with the best ideas and intentions, there has to be financial clout to power the progress. Fuelling this whole industry is not easy, and does require infrastructure investment on a significant scale.

Since 2007, Equitix has been leading the charge. An international investor, developer, and infrastructure fund manager, the company has more than 360 assets under management, valued at around $11.7 billion. 200 people across 10 countries help the business to drive value for investors, while working towards the vision of ‘creating a lasting legacy for generations’.

Today, the company has six focus areas: social infrastructure, renewable energy, transport, environmental services, network utilities and data infrastructure.

In the renewable energy sector, the company has significant interests across a number of projects. MD Asset
