“Elgin is a perfect fit for CIP’s investment strategy given its strong leadership and culture, market leading development expertise, high quality pipeline of scale and significant growth potential in markets with attractive fundamentals,” Nischal Agarwal, partner in the CIP Flagship investment team.
“We are well placed to support Elgin in transforming into an IPP with our expertise in procurement and construction.”
