Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners P/S (CIP) is a Danish-based global fund manager focused on greenfield renewable energy infrastructure. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Copenhagen, it manages 13 funds with EUR 35 billion under management for around 200 institutional investors, primarily pension funds, insurers, endowments and family offices. CIP concentrates on developing and constructing large, complex energy projects and has built a market‑leading portfolio spanning offshore and onshore wind, solar PV, biomass and energy‑from‑waste, transmission and distribution assets, reserve capacity, energy storage, advanced bioenergy and Power‑to‑X. Its strategy is to enter projects at an early greenfield stage, de‑risk and optimise them before construction and deliver long‑term, contracted cash flows and attractive risk‑adjusted returns.
CIP operates globally with 19 offices and more than 2,300 professionals working across projects and platforms in over 30 countries in Western Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and Australia. Its platform includes specialist delivery companies such as CIP Terra Technologies for land‑based renewables and CIP Molecule Technologies for Power‑to‑X and carbon capture projects, alongside Copenhagen Offshore Partners as its exclusive offshore wind development partner. The fund suite is structured around Flagship Funds focused on large‑scale projects in low‑risk OECD markets, Growth Markets Funds for high‑growth middle‑income countries, and dedicated Energy Transition, Advanced Bioenergy and Green Credit funds targeting hard‑to‑abate sectors and subordinated green infrastructure debt.
Copenhagen Infrastructure V (CI V), CIP’s fifth Flagship Fund, exceeded its EUR 12 billion target and is described as the world’s largest fund dedicated to greenfield renewable energy infrastructure. CI V invests in a diversified portfolio of more than 50 large‑scale projects, including onshore and offshore wind, solar and energy storage, in low‑risk OECD markets across North America, Western Europe and Asia Pacific. Classified under EU rules as an Article 9 fund, CI V is structured so that each investment contributes to environmental objectives such as increased renewable capacity, renewable generation and avoided CO2 emissions, underpinned by CIP’s responsible investment and ESG framework.
