HedgeCo.Net — EIG announced the final close of EIG Senior Infrastructure Debt Fund VI (SIDF VI) at $1.9 billion, nearly double its predecessor, and said $2.1 billion committed to single-investor vehicles brings the direct-lending platform to $4.0 billion raised versus an original $3 billion strategy target. City A.M. carried the Business Wire release stating SIDF VI has committed about $1 billion across 16 investments since launching in July 2024, focusing on senior secured debt in power, renewables, energy-transition infrastructure, midstream, and other critical infrastructure primarily in the United States and Europe.
EIG reported $27.1 billion AUM as of June 30, 2026, and said support came from existing and new LPs across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East, spanning pensions, sovereign wealth funds, insurers, and other institutions. Campbell Lutyens served as placement agent; Kirkland & Ellis advised EIG; Scotiabank structured a rated note feeder. CEO R. Blair Thomas framed the raise against what EIG calls a major energy-related infrastructure investment cycle.
This is a final fund close plus sidecar SIVs, not a portfolio exit. Treat the $1.9 billion SIDF VI close, the $2.1 billion SIV sleeve, the combined $4.0 billion platform print, and ~$1 billion / 16 investments deployed as company-stated. Do not invent LP names, a hard IRR, or deal-level commitments inside the 16. The allocator object is senior infrastructure / energy private credit.
