Infrastructure Investor keynote interview: Ready to build for a new era

"Investors are increasingly looking at European energy assets as part of the region’s defence and security agenda"

Sosteneo's Partner and Head of Investor Relations, Chris Deves, joined Infrastructure Investor for a keynote interview to discuss why a greenfield, ready‑to‑build approach is critical to delivering Europe’s energy future.

In the interview, Deves explains how the European energy transition has evolved beyond decarbonisation alone, increasingly intersecting with energy security, system resilience and economic stability. As geopolitical and infrastructure challenges intensify, enabling assets are becoming central to long‑term investment strategies.

With over 15 years of experience in capital formation and investor relations across the infrastructure asset class, Deves shares his perspective on why enabling infrastructure – from battery storage to grid interconnections – is now core to institutional portfolios seeking defensive, infrastructure‑style returns.
