Spanish renewable energy company Enfinity Global has acquired a 400MW utility-scale solar portfolio in the US from Capital Dynamics.
Originally announced in September, the acquisition includes 28 operational solar power plants located across California, North Carolina and Idaho.
The portfolio has the capacity to generate 1,175GWh of clean energy a year, which is enough to power up to 64,000 homes, while displacing 508,000t of carbon emissions annually.
It also has long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) in place with investment-grade utility off-takers.
Enfinity Global CEO Carlos Domenech said: “We are thankful for the opportunity to work with Capital Dynamics with the support of our investment partners.
“The US alone invested over $100bn in renewable energy in 2021. To succeed in the energy transition, sound investments need to be aligned to capital in scale.”
