The fund has already invested €150 million in a portfolio of 18 projects across Europe procured via public-private partnerships or as part of the UK government’s private finance initiative (PFI), a standardised procurement process involving the private sector. Additionally, it has also invested in an 82-megawatt portfolio of onshore wind assets in Germany.
DIF Infrastructure II has been particularly active in the PFI secondary market of late. It recently acquired a 12.5 percent stake in the UK’s largest hospital PFI – the £1.7 billion (€1.9 billion; $2.8 billion) Bart’s Hospital project – from the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. Prior to that, it purchased a 50 percent stake in a portfolio of 10 PFI schools from UK construction company Amey.
