Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners

Quinbrook was established in July 2015 by David Scaysbrook and Rory Quinlan (the “Founders”) who have invested in renewables for over two decades and in power infrastructure more broadly since the early 1990s. As fund managers, they have led investment teams and portfolio companies that have invested over USD 5.6 billion of equity in over 200 low carbon projects, including renewable energy, storage, grid support, green data centres, decarbonised transportation, and critical minerals projects.

We bring disciplined management of risk and return to each of the origination, development, and construction risk stages of infrastructure asset creation. In particular, we build with a view to achieving platform scale, we target markets where we see an early mover advantage, and we manage and operate our assets to deliver holistic and tangible impacts.
