This strengthens Eltel’s position as an infrastructure service provider in the renewable energy sector during the ongoing energy transition.

In September 2024, Taaleri Energia, in partnership with Masdar, secured financing for the Čibuk 2 wind farm in Serbia. The project, expected to power 62,000 households, has secured a €144m debt facility.

The financing was provided by commercial lenders UniCredit and Erste (Erste Group and Erste Bank Serbia).

The wind farm is being developed through Masdar Taaleri Generation, a joint venture between Masdar and Taaleri Energia, in collaboration with Serbian developer New Energy Solutions.

In October 2024, OX2 entered an asset management agreement with Nuveen Infrastructure to oversee Finland’s Piiparinmaki wind farm, which began commercial production in the summer of 2022.

OX2 was tasked with the facility’s technical, commercial and financial operations to optimise performance.
