Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners said it has bought a majority shareholding in Elgin Energy, best known in Ireland, Britain, and Australia for its solar energy and battery storage projects.

It comes after the Government’s Ireland Strategic Investment Fund (Isif) said earlier this week it had invested €200m in “a flagship fund” run by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners.
