Whitepaper Series Connected with the future

Infrastructure and transformation

at Commerz Real, we ask ourselves the following fundamental question: what does a future look like in which we as humans want to live? When viewed in its entirety, the topic of infrastructure represents one of the crucial aspects in terms of sustainably networking and designing environments. It forms the basis of our communities and links the major issues of our time, such as energy supply, urban development and safeguarding prosperity. 

Despite the social, political and economic challenges of recent years, infrastructure transformation is increasingly gaining momentum – and in Germany, for example, there is currently a huge need for investment. 

The reliable expansion of roads, railways, waterways, electricity supply and telecommunication networks benefits everyone – the state, citizens and companies. 

Innovative excellence and a network of strong partners are needed to make this happen. At Commerz Real, we focus on established technologies and assets. In recent decades, we have developed comprehensive expertise in the areas of property and renewable energies – two key segments with exceptional relevance for all aspects of infrastructure. It has long been clear that property and renewable energies are inexplicably linked, which is why we need to develop holistic approaches tailored to people’s needs.

These approaches support us on the journey to net zero and open up new income streams. As we are aiming to provide a comprehensive picture of the global infrastructure market in this white paper, we have produced a three-part series. This first part examines the changing market and the opportunities it offers to institutional and private investors. Part two explores the influence of infrastructures on the energy transition, whereas part three centres on how they affect people and cities.

We hope you discover exciting and structured insights.
