Pinsent Masons MPillay advises development funders on South-East Asia renewable energy investment
28 Jan 2025 | 11:06 pm |
Multinational law firm Pinsent Masons MPillay has advised British International Investment Plc (BII) and Nederlandse Financierings-Maatschappij voor Ontwikkelingslanden N.V. (FMO) on their investment into a newly established renewable energy platform focused on South-East Asia.
The deal sees BII, the UK’s development finance institution and impact investor, and FMO, the Dutch entrepreneurial development bank, invest US$70 million and US$50 million respectively into SUSI Partners’ Sustainable Asia Renewable Assets platform (SARA), whilst topping up their commitments to the SUSI Asia Energy Transition Fund (SAETF).
The fresh commitments will help the co-investment platform achieve its aim to fund a proprietary pipeline of projects across South-East Asia to create a scalable and independent renewable power platform. SAETF has invested in Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand and Cambodia.
The Pinsent Masons MPillay team was led by Singapore corporate partner William Stroll, associates Bryan Chapman and Chen Litong.
Commenting on the matter, William said: ‘We are very pleased to once again have advised on an investment that is targeting the funding of renewable energy project in Asia.’
‘Pinsent Masons MPillay has worked on a wide range of green investment matters in Asia in recent years. Regional funds such as the SUSI Asia Energy Transition Fund and international investors such as BII and FMO are crucial to supporting both the ambitious net zero emissions targets set by many countries in Asia and to meet the growing energy demands in the region.’
