Our Portfolio

Applegreen

Applegreen is the largest motorway service area operator in the US and Ireland and the second-largest in the UK.1 We partnered with Applegreen, alongside its two founders, with the goal of investing behind Applegreen’s geographic and electric vehicle charging expansion. The company has a commitment to sustainability and has installed roughly ~1,000 electric vehicle chargers as of 2023, with plans to add many more.

Invenergy

Invenergy Renewables is the largest private renewables developer in the United States.2 Blackstone’s $4.1 billion investment in the company represents the largest recorded equity investment in North American renewables to date.3 Invenergy has developed and commercialized 26 GW across approximately 190 wind, solar and storage projects, and works to sustain long-term partnerships with utilities, financial institutions, and commercial and industrial customers.4

ASPI

ASPI is the largest toll road network in Europe by traffic volume and the largest Italian toll road concession, spanning over 3,000 kilometers and covering approximately 50% of the Italian toll motorway system.6 We believe that ASPI is positioned to benefit from continued post-COVID traffic growth given its concentration in Northern Italy, one of Europe’s most prosperous areas. We partnered with Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (“CDP”) and Macquarie Asset Management in the acquisition of ASPI and plan to invest significantly over the course of our ownership to improve ASPI’s toll road network.

Carrix

Carrix is the largest marine terminal operator in North America7 and plays a critical role in the global supply chain. As international commerce grows, we believe Carrix’s gateway trade lanes will benefit. We are excited to continue partnering with the company’s leadership team to invest behind future growth.

Phoenix Tower International

Phoenix Tower International (PTI) is a leading private cell tower platform that operates over 27,000 cell towers across the Americas and Europe.8 Funds managed by Blackstone Infrastructure Partners acquired a stake in PTI in 2021 to help expand and to strengthen its platform in Europe and the Americas. Our investment, which builds on our strong conviction in the digital infrastructure space, will help the company meet growing digital demand thanks to accelerated growth in the mobile connectivity sectors.

QTS Data Center

QTS

QTS is currently the largest data center provider in the US.9 At the time of investment, QTS was the fifth largest and fastest-growing US data center, and represented the largest-ever investment in the data center space.10, 11, 12 QTS is also a leader in sustainability and ESG and was named an infrastructure sector leader by GRESB in 2022.
