Building green infrastructure in India

Green Growth Equity Fund (GGEF) focuses on addressing climate change in India by investing in scalable operating companies and platforms across several key segments: renewable energy, energy storage, e-mobility, energy efficiency and resource conservation, including water and waste management.

EverSource Capital operates with a private equity mindset and takes scalable control positions to create value with the highest ESG standards. With this scope, GGEF brings together both the more traditional renewables and the broader circular economy, decarbonising and resource efficiency. 

Fund Manager at Triodos IM, Angeles Toledo: “Green Growth Equity Fund’s broad scope of investing makes it a great addition to our growing renewable energy portfolio in emerging markets. The opportunities in the renewable energy market in India are significant, and by tapping into various segments, synergies are possible, whilst diversification and impact are achieved.”

The Triodos funds hold a shared Limited Partner Advisory Committee position and therefore shall actively engage in the general oversight of the fund, act as a decision-making body with respect to the potential conflict of interest and approve any major changes to the Limited Partnership Agreement.
