This investment represents the first venture within Border to Coast’s UK Opportunities portfolio on behalf of its Partner Funds.

Border to Coast chief investment officer Joe McDonnell said: “From the outset we said our UK Opportunities proposition would focus on adding value through financing the build of new infrastructure and our first commitment on behalf of Partner Funds delivers just that.

“Capital Dynamics offers not only a strong investment opportunity, but also the ability to have a tangible impact on the future pipeline of renewable energy infrastructure that the UK sorely needs if it is to reduce its reliance on oil and gas and meet net-zero goals.”       

The Clean Energy UK Fund by Capital Dynamics is dedicated to investing in renewable energy projects, with a primary focus on onshore wind and solar power.
