By GlobalDataThe company stated that this change can help better align asset management with Ardian’s goals and capitalise on AGR-AM’s expertise in optimising renewable energy assets in the region.
The restructuring will also simplify its asset management, granting it better control of the solar plants.
This will result in direct management and full integration with Ardian’s Clean Energy Evergreen Fund (ACEEF) portfolio, which includes recently acquired hydroelectric plants in Peru.
Ardian renewables infrastructure managing director Benjamin Kennedy stated: “The reconfiguration of our solar assets in Chile and Peru is very strategic for us and underscores our commitment to optimising our renewable energy portfolio.
“This transaction enables Ardian to gain full ownership of excellent solar plants, empowering us to manage and integrate them seamlessly within the ACEEF portfolio. We believe this move will not only enhance operational efficiency but also align with our broader vision of promoting sustainability and clean energy.”
In 2023, Ardian agreed to sell ASR Wind, a portfolio of 12 wind farms in Spain, to Naturgy.
The portfolio includes wind farms with a total capacity of 422MW commissioned between 2005 and 2012.
