Brookfield Closes $20 Billion Energy Transition Fund, Begins Deploying Capital

The firm cites surging power demand from AI to justify a broad low‑carbon investing push.

Overview

  • Brookfield said it closed its second energy transition fund at $20 billion in commitments, which it describes as the largest private clean‑energy vehicle.
  • Including about $3.5 billion of co‑investments, reported total commitments exceed $23 billion.
  • Abu Dhabi’s Altérra served as an anchor investor, with participation reported from Norway’s sovereign wealth fund.
  • Roughly $5 billion is already being put to work, reported to include deals involving renewables developers Neoen and Geronimo Power plus an Indian solar‑plus‑storage joint venture.
  • Brookfield president Connor Teskey pointed to accelerating electricity demand from AI as a driver for an "any‑and‑all" approach that favors low‑carbon resources, with the raise described as oversubscribed.
