Solarvest names new chief investment officer

Daniel Ruppert has 15 years of experience in investment and business management.

Malaysia’s Solarvest Holdings Berhad has appointed Daniel Ruppert as its new chief investment officer as it boosts efforts to attain its one-gigawatt target for clean energy assets.

In a statement, Solarvest said this latest appointment was effective 1 July. This is also in line with the company’s five-year plan “to achieve 1GW of clean energy assets through greenfield and brownfield investments across Southeast Asia.”

Solarvest expects Ruppert’s appointment to accelerate the group’s expansion overseas. As chief investment officer, he will be responsible for clean energy asset acquisitions, portfolio management, risk management, and strategic capital allocation.

“We are intending to diversify beyond our current solar pipeline of 6.1 GWp [global-warming potential] with various clean energy infrastructure investments. For our investment strategy, we will be welcoming institutional and impact investors to join our expansion journey and participate in the financial returns,” Ruppert said.

“We will also pursue co-investment alliances, mergers and acquisitions, and joint ventures,” he added.
