Nawal Sain, a renewable power and transition management partner and executive partner for South Asia and the Middle East in Brookfield, said, iz We have the operational ability to make platforms and we look at the different ways of approaching the constant dating. I hope we will soon establish another platform. ”

Speaking Mint The Sustainability Summit in the New Delhi recently said that the company’s journey in renewable energy sources in India is relatively young. “In our more than one segment, we have committed approximately 3 billion dollars of self-equity, and about 50-55% have been deployed.

Although Brookfield does not explain the details around the area he wanted to establish a platform, Saini said that the company closely follows the green mobility area and has changed around the policy.

His comments on the creation of a new platform come about two years after Brookfield announces Evren, a joint venture with axis energy created to focus on developing a large wind and solar project in India. In the next two to three years, he summarized a initial goal to create more than 6GW renewable energy assets in the most resourceful states in the country.

Brookfield’s portfolio of renewable energy assets in India is between approximately 40GW between 40GW. The company made various investments in companies such as Leap Green Energy, Cleanmax and Avaada Green Group to expand the renewable footprint in India.

Saini said that India’s renewable journey has just begun and that it is ready to grow 3-4x in the next decade. “This is a country with global interest especially for renewable energy. The third largest market-this scale can be another? There are systems and processes, we have the right ecosystem and a great developing market that respects capital.

He also supported the government’s difficulty in India and emphasized the firm’s plans to increase resources from the country. “In order to accelerate this process, technology transfer should be encouraged to accelerate this process and I am sure that we will go there because India already has all the materials”.

Brookfield, headquartered in New York, manages assets above $ 1 trillion between renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private capital, real estate and credit. In India, their assets (AUM) expects 30 billion dollars, Brookfield’s President Connor Teskey will reach $ 100 billion in the next five years. This means a growth rate faster than the general portfolio. In May, the majority of this expansion was due to inorganic vehicles, but general growth would be a mixture and additional investments.

Each of the $ 30 billion portfolio in India, infrastructure and real estate, $ 12 billion, renewable power and transition and private capital and Brookfield private investments $ 3 billion and $ 3.6 billion respectively. These include India’s longest special cross -cross pipeline of 1,480km; More than 55 million square meters in the top nine office markets in India; About 43GW wind and solar presence in activity or development as well as others.

With attractive interest rates in the country, increasing demand and better liquidity potential in the capital markets, Brookfield expects solid returns in India and aims to have high quality, critical assets in markets with strong tail winds.

As Teskey tried to make global companies more flexible and move from a single supplier model to more than one supplier, India said that India looks like the beneficiary of all these trends.
