### UAE-backed climate fund complex **Alterra**, launched with $30 billion during Cop28 and based in Abu Dhabi, has committed new funding to **KKR’s** Global Climate Transition Strategy.

> **The Details**

The new commitment's focus sectors range widely to include **renewables and storage, electrification, energy efficiency, sustainable fuels, waste, and circular economy** solutions – and makes seven investments to date for Alterra. Geographically, the investment will address climate and energy transition and deploy in **North America, Europe, and Asia**, drawing from Alterra's Acceleration Fund – one of three in its fund-of-funds model. The size remains undisclosed.

> **Experts Explain**

The tie-up "reflects a shared commitment to accelerating investment in the infrastructure underpinning the energy transition," **Charlie Gailliot and Emmanuel Lagarrigue, Co-Heads of KKR’s Global Climate Transition Strategy said**. "As energy demand continues to grow, we see a significant opportunity to invest in solutions that enhance energy security, improve affordability, and ensure reliability, while supporting decarbonization across the real economy." 

**Karim Radwan, Partner and Head of Investments at Alterra,** added that the partnership demonstrates "that impact and commercial performance can go hand in hand. As global economies expand clean power capacity, modernize grids and electrify transport and industry, the need for large-scale, resilient infrastructure will continue to grow. Against this backdrop, we need to direct capital at scale into solutions that will enable the next phase of the global climate transition.”

> **Why It Matters**

Against the grain of geopolitics, **alternatives managers continue to scale their sustainable exposure** and connectivity. KKR, which recently [celebrated 50 years](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/kenmehlman%5F50-years-ago-these-legends-founded-kkr-with-activity-7455981768907870208-O5kz?ref=financialht.com) in business, is one the world's largest private infrastructure investors with US$100 billion in infrastructure assets under management. 

Since 2011, the firm says it has invested more than **US$44 billion** in climate and environmental sustainability investments. For Alterra the move also follows a [similar commitment](https://www.financialht.com/ifc-invests-100-million-in-brookfield-emerging-markets-fund/) made with the IFC to **Brookfield's Catalytic Transition Fund** last year.
