PensionDanmark was the first Danish Pension Fund to invest directly in infrastructure. the first investment being Nysted Offshore Wind Farm in 2010. We have since increased investments in the portfolio to more than DKK20bn. Ultimately, we are aiming to have 20 per cent of our assets – more than DKK250bn invested in sustainable real estate and infrastructure.”
