AustralianSuper would be a willing capital partner for Origin while it transitions, believing the firm's value is better with shareholders than a private equity consortium. Origin aims to develop 4GW of renewable energy by 2030, open to collaborating with other investors.
Brookfield's Infrastructure Group CEO attributes strong investor backing to market lead and momentum in the sector. BIF V's strategy focuses on 'Three Ds' expected to bring substantial investment potential.
AustralianSuper opposes the existing deal from the Brookfield-led group, arguing it undervalues Origin's long-term value and raises concerns over scarce investment opportunities in the country's energy transition.
