**BODY OF THE ARTICLE**

Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), through one of its subsidiaries, will invest 500 million dollars in AlphaGen, a key energy portfolio owned by funds managed by ArcLight Capital Partners. The transaction, still subject to regulatory approvals, is expected to be finalized in the first half of 2025.

AlphaGen comprises 11 gigawatts (GW) of strategically located energy assets across the United States, addressing growing energy demand driven by electrification and the development of artificial intelligence-powered data centers. These trends are significantly increasing the need for resilient and sustainable energy infrastructure.

Since its establishment in 2001, ArcLight has overseen more than 65 GW of assets and thousands of miles of transmission infrastructure. Leveraging this expertise, the group positions itself as a key player in addressing emerging energy challenges.

AlphaGen, a strategic portfolio

According to ArcLight, AlphaGen’s assets were selectively acquired over time to create a strategic portfolio that addresses critical energy needs for data centers and local industries. This partnership with ADIA enhances their ability to capitalize on opportunities in a transforming market.

A strengthened partnership

Khadem AlRemeithi, Executive Director of ADIA’s Infrastructure Department, stated that this collaboration deepens their partnership with ArcLight, recognized for its expertise in energy infrastructure. Curt Morgan, CEO of AlphaGen, believes that this portfolio is ideally positioned to meet the growing demand for safe and reliable energy solutions.
