Partners Group backs 1.3GW of Australian wind, PV and storage

Swiss investment specialist Partners Group will invest A$700 ($529m) to spur 1.3GW of wind, solar and storage in Australia in conjunction with local player CWP Renewables.

Partners Group will join CWP to build the assets – collectively known as Grassroots Renewable Energy Platform – across Australia over the next four years, said a statement.

Grassroots will be kicked off by the 270MW Sapphire wind farm project, which CWP is already developing with Partners Group’s backing in the state of New South Wales.
