Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) has signed an investment agreement through its Copenhagen Infrastructure New Markets Fund I (CI NMF) with Amp Energy India Private Limited (Amp India).

“This is a key milestone as we march towards our goal of creating the first truly balanced and complete renewable power producer with a 5 GWp target,” Pinaki Bhattacharyya, Co-Founder, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Amp India said.

The portfolio comprises 900 MWp in late-stage projects (solar PV and hybrid wind / solar PV) and an additional 800 MWp of projects in earlier stages of development.

“As one of the world’s most dynamic and competitive renewable energy markets, India is a key focus for CI NMF and we are delighted to take this first important step together with a great partner in Amp, who combine an excellent track record and shared values in developing and realising projects,” Niels Holst, Partner and Head of CI NMF added.
