LGPS Central is pleased to note the energisation of two significant UK solar projects, Inkersall (70MW) and Crifton (60MW), under the NextPower UK ESG fund. These utility-scale solar projects, supported by LGPS Central on behalf of our Partner Funds, are contributing to the UK’s energy security while delivering stable, inflation-linked cash flows for our Partner Funds.
Located in Nottinghamshire, the projects generate clean energy locally while supporting job creation and place-based investment within our Partner Funds’ regions, demonstrating the positive social and economic impacts that well-structured infrastructure investments can deliver.
Nadeem Hussain, Head of Private Markets at LGPS Central, commented:
“We are committed to investing in high-quality infrastructure opportunities that align with both financial objectives and sustainability principles on behalf of our Partner Funds. NextPower UK ESG offers long-term, stable returns from utility-scale solar farms while driving meaningful environmental impact.”
At LGPS Central, we invest in opportunities that meet a broad range of objectives for our Partner Funds, ensuring investment return remains central while delivering additional benefits such as energy security and local prosperity.
We look forward to continuing to identify and support opportunities that deliver for our Partner Funds and their members while contributing to a more sustainable and resilient UK economy.
