UK pension funds have made new and follow-up investments in Alpha Real Capital’s Wind Renewables Income Fund, which invests mainly in onshore feed in tariff wind assets in the country.
The fund secured an £80m (€93m) follow-up subscription from existing investors including the Towers Watson Secure Income Fund and Yorkshire & Clydesdale Bank Pension Scheme, with new investment coming from the pension scheme for specialist chemicals firm Croda.
Alpha said Wind Renewables Income Fund invested mainly in sub-5 megawatt onshore feed in tariff wind assets in the UK, “providing UK pension fund investors with secure inflation-linked income (circa 80%) and with a current duration in excess of 20 years”.
