Infrastructure & Power Deals

The infrastructure sector saw major regulatory and strategic movements, with LS Power securing a $5 billion gas regulatory sweetener designed to support its financing needs. This comes as the broader market digests slowing momentum, evidenced by a reported 50 percent slowdown in US data centre growth compared to prior periods. Elsewhere, Quinbrook is building an in-house Australian construction team to gain tighter control over its pipeline of battery storage projects amid a highly constrained labor market for such specialized execution roles.

Real Estate & Valuation

In real assets, Hines acquired four UK mid-box logistics assets for a collective purchase price of £60 million, expanding its holdings in that segment to eight similar properties via its core-plus HEPP fund. Meanwhile, institutional fund managers are adjusting reporting strategies; Igneo Infrastructure Partners is prioritizing quarterly valuations to proactively manage client expectations and avoid sharp, unexpected valuation drops, a lesson learned from exiting its initial Euro fund.
