    BlackRock today announced it will establish a perpetual infrastructure strategy that will seek to partner with leading infrastructure businesses over the long term to help drive the global energy transition. Building on the broad capabilities of BlackRock’s longstanding infrastructure platform, it will seek to make lasting investments in core assets and aim to create resilient, inflation-linked returns for investors, while creating growth in the real economy. Over half of the strategy will be allocated to Europe initially, becoming increasingly global over the decades to come.

    The shift toward a green economy is creating a step change across all infrastructure sectors today, opening attractive investment opportunities in several areas. This strategy will pursue investments in the megatrends of energy transition and energy security, as well as digital and community infrastructure, sustainable mobility, and the circular economy. It will seek to deploy capital into fully integrated businesses such as utilities and end-to-end renewable energy infrastructure players, as well as assets such as data centers, grid digitization technologies, battery storage systems, and natural gas storage and transport facilities, where adaptable to incorporate hydrogen. Through its investments in these businesses, BlackRock will take an active approach in helping companies transition to lower-carbon business models over time.

    “We believe the intersection of infrastructure and sustainability will be one of the biggest opportunities in alternative investments in the coming years. At the same time, recent events have sharpened the focus on energy security and further compounded the need for infrastructure investment,” said Edwin Conway, Global Head of BlackRock Alternative Investors. “Private markets will continue to play a pivotal role in the energy transition, and we are pleased to offer our clients another way to go beyond simply navigating the transition to driving it forward.”

According to the BlackRock Investment Institute, the switch away from Russian energy will accelerate the net-zero transition in Europe over the long term but make it more divergent globally.3
