Renewable energy investments have become an indispensable part of the investment mix, especially for institutional investors. Whereas at the beginning of this megatrend the focus was primarily on investments in individual plants, now the focus is primarily on investments in energy types and locations via diversified portfolios just like early entry into cleantech start-ups. "The next and most profitable step is investing in the project development phase", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group.

The new U.S. administration under President Joe Biden is starting out with big plans for sustainability. The Democrats also want to drive forward the expansion of renewable energies. "A lot of money will flow into this area, but for European investors the segment is not attractive, at least not yet", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.

At the end of 2021, a new solar park with a total capacity of 21 megawatts, including a transformer station, is to be connected to the grid in Germany. This is being developed by the Clean Energy Future Fund of aream GmbH together with NaGa Solar. “A special feature of this project is that the electricity will be marketed via direct purchase contracts”, says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group.

In December 2020, both wind and solar energy yields were weak. Germany achieved 92 percent of the average for solar, and only 74 percent for wind. "Nevertheless, renewable energies are right on target for the year as a whole", says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group.
