Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through its CI Advanced Bioenergy Fund (ABF) I, has approved the final investment decision for Nivalan Biokaasu biogas facility. The facility will have an estimated annual biomethane production output of more than 200 GWh. Development of the project began in 2023 in collaboration with a local developer and regional authorities. The Finnish Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment awarded the project a capital expenditure grant in 2024.
Construction for the project will begin in late 2025, with operations scheduled to start in the second half of 2027. Once fully operational, the project is expected to offset up to 38,000 tonnes of fossil carbon annually. Additionally, it will process more than 600,000 tonnes of agricultural and industrial organic waste annually, converting the waste into biomethane.
In August 2025, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through its flagship fund CI V, acquired the 250 MW/1,000 MWh Beehive battery energy storage system in Peoria, Arizona, from EDF Power Solutions North America, with construction having started earlier in 2025 under EDF and now to be completed under CIP.
