“The latest funding will be used by the company to repay publicly traded bonds linked to EnfraGen subsidiary Fontus Hydro.”

“With their support, we are able to enhance existing assets and pursue value-added opportunities in the Americas.”

Fontus Hydro purchased three run-of-river hydroelectric power plants located at the Piedra River, in the province of Chiriquí, Panama last year. The plants were owned and operated by Hidrotenencias, which started operations in 2008 and is headquartered in Panama City.

The three facilities sell the generated electricity to the Regional Electricity Market (MER) comprising Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama in Central America.

Glenfarne secured up to $700m in capital to fund EnfraGen’s subsidiaries, Prime Energía and Fontus Hydro in July 2018.
