Add to Preferred SourcesFinnish asset management house Korkia is fast-tracking growth by initiating cooperation with NEFCO, a Nordic finance institution specialising in green financing and sustainability.
With financing from NEFCO, Korkia’s focus will be increasingly more in renewable energy and environmental technology solutions on the global market, starting with solar power projects in Latin America and Europe.
Helena Lähteenmäki, Senior Investment Manager at NEFCO, sees Korkia as an opportunity to get involved in new, interesting green projects.
“NEFCO and Korkia share common goals and values, and together we can make a greater environmental impact. NEFCO only finances projects that have a positive impact on the environment or climate and which increase sustainability. Korkia’s projects, especially in solar power and as an infrastructure investor, are excellently aligned with our strategy to promote the growth of Nordic green technology companies on the global market,” says Lähteenmäki.
Before the turn of the year, Korkia, a company specialised in investing, developing and financing sustainable growth, announced it had strengthened its solar power business by signing new investments worth more than USD 300 million with international investors. This will take the solar power plant portfolio managed by Korkia to almost 400 megawatts in the coming years to make the company one of the largest solar players in Europe. Solar power growth seems to have a bright future in Korkia’s target markets.
