Rest commits $1 billion to green data centres

One of Australia’s largest industry super funds, Rest, has invested $1 billion in green data centres via renewable and clean energy infrastructure manager Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners, committing to further the sustainable digitisation progress.  

The investment will include exposure to a range of assets, such as solar and battery projects and green data storage centres, including Quinbrook’s Supernode green data campus in Brisbane, which is believed to be the largest in the southern hemisphere. 

Quinbrook is led and managed by a team of power industry professionals who have collectively invested more than US$8.2 billion (A$12.5 billion) in energy infrastructure assets since the early 1990s.
