A group led by global investment company Temasek has agreed to purchase preferred equity interests in Cypress Creek Renewables with an investment of $200m.

Through this investment, the group will be acquiring an aggregate 10% stake of the common stock in Cypress.

Headquartered in Singapore, Temasek owns a $235bn portfolio as of 31 March this year, with significant exposure to Singapore and the rest of Asia.

“More than 3.2GW of projects will be developed and placed-in-service by Cypress by the end of this year.”

Cypress CEO Matt McGovern said: “Temasek has shown itself to be a patient, forward-looking partner focused on generating sustainable long-term returns – and it is this shared vision that makes expansion of our relationship quite natural.

“The confidence Temasek has shown in our business model and development portfolio is a firm endorsement of our strategy, which we look forward to refining and executing on in tandem in the years to come.”
