Reaching $1.26 billion in capital commitments gives us the scale and capital certainty to continue to pursue the most compelling infrastructure opportunities."
CBRE IM and the Accelerate management team launched the infrastructure site acquisition strategy in December 2022 and efficiently built a high-quality, diversified portfolio of over 400 infrastructure sites under digital, renewable and transportation infrastructure assets across 47 states.
Robert Shaw, Managing Director at CBRE Investment Management, added: "Leveraging the breadth and capabilities of the CBRE platform and a premier management team, Accelerate quickly established itself as the leading infrastructure site platform. CBRE Investment Management is proud to increase our support of Accelerate and welcome Mubadala, ART and our other partners to the platform. This strategic capital raise will enable Accelerate to continue to scale its diversified portfolio of key infrastructure assets and deliver durable infrastructure cash flows to investors."
Giovanni Oddo, Head of Americas, Infrastructure, Mubadala Investment Company, said: "This partnership with CBRE Investment Management further expands our infrastructure exposure in the United States, a key strategic market for Mubadala. The investment aligns with our focus on key infrastructure at the intersection of digital connectivity and energy systems. As demand accelerates across data, power, and mobility, platforms like Accelerate play an important role in enabling the infrastructure required to support a rapidly evolving global economy.
