  • Leveraging on its expertise and proven track record in the renewable energy space, Cube Infrastructure Managers is well positioned to continue to invest in the sector across Europe.

Luxembourg, January 10, 2022 – Cube Infrastructure Managers (Cube), a leading infrastructure investment manager, announces today the completion of the sale of Cube Hydro Power (CHP) to a consortium (the Consortium) backed by White Summit Capital, IST3 Investment Foundation – acting in respect of and on behalf of its investment group IST3 Infrastruktur Global – and Reichmuth & Co. CHP was the last remaining asset in Cube Infrastructure Fund’s portfolio, and this sale concludes the successful divestment program of the fund.

CHP includes two main businesses (i) A majority stake in Renewable Power International Partners (RPIP), an independent power producer headquartered in Madrid, and the owner and operator of 24 small hydro-plants in Spain and Portugal with a total operating capacity of 100 MW and (ii) a 7.2MW wind farm owned 100% by Cube Energy Spain which became fully operational in 2019. RPIP’s asset portfolio is broadly diversified across various climatic regions, river, basins, plantcharacteristics and regulatory environments. Since Cube Infrastructure Fund’s investment in 2011, RPIP has been successful in extending the terms of a number of concessions.

The minority shareholders of RPIP are also selling their stake to the Consortium at the same time as Cube.

Saket Trivedi, Managing Director at Cube Infrastructure Managers said: “We are proud to have accompanied the development of CHP over the last 10 years, and turned it into a sizeable renewable platform in Iberia. Renewables are playing an increasingly important role in the energy transition and the decarbonization of our economies as well as being a sector that we are continuously screening to seize attractive opportunities.”
