Ecofin Global Utilities and Infrastructure Trust plc (EGL)

Designed for Growth and Resilience

EGL’s purpose is to provide long-term capital growth and attractive dividend income for shareholders by investing in listed utilities, environmental services and other economic infrastructure sectors globally. EGL targets a total return (including dividends) of 6–12% per annum over the longer term.

Harnessing structural growth from the energy transition

EGL invests in companies whose core assets respond to essential needs, operate within solid regulatory frameworks, and have predictable and sustainable cash flows. These businesses are growing as they invest to accomplish vital infrastructure upgrades and sustainability objectives.

Infrastructure globally requires major investment to keep pace with GDP growth, the transition to renewable energy, and to meet sustainable development goals. The policy environment is increasingly supportive, just as renewable energies have become the cheapest sources of electricity in most areas of the world.

Capturing value from rapidly evolving business models

The electric power sector is undergoing a profound transformation driven by the decarbonisation and electrification of energy demand. Utilities are at the forefront of this multi-decade transition. By adapting and, in many cases, substantially overhauling their business models to accommodate new greener technologies and decentralised power sources, utilities are expected to be major beneficiaries of structural growth and attractive returns on significant capital investments.
