UK-based energy-focused private equity firm Denham Capital has formed a partnership with Singapore-based Nexif Energy to develop, finance, construct and acquire conventional and renewable power generation assets across South East Asia.

Nexif Energy founder and co-chief executive officer Surender Singh said: "South East Asia has a tremendous need for new power generation and we look forward to working with governments, our partners and the region’s communities to provide electricity solutions that are both economical and reliable."

Nexif is an independent power management firm that has developed, financed, constructed or exited more than 4GW of projects, worth around $4.3bn, across Asia, Australia and the Middle East.

Matthew Bartley is also a co-founder and co-chief executive officer at Nexif.

"Through the Nexif Energy platform we anticipate investing more than $200m in project equity across the region."

Both firms are backed by significant experience and intend to take advantage of further opportunities in their target markets.
