Corporate News ENCAVIS successfully signed project refinancing agreements for Spanish solar parks Talayuela & La Cabrera of EUR 203 million
The Talayuela plant, located in the region of Extremadura, has a generation capacity of 300 MW, while the La Cabrera plant, located in the region of Andalusia, has a generation capacity of 200 MW. Both projects are operational since end of 2020/beginning of 2021 and were one of the first European utility scale solar parks that were realised and operated without public subsidies. The energy prices for the majority of the electricity production for both projects are fixed by long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), both for a term of initially ten years. The refinancing is provided by a club of four international banks: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (NL), Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A. (NL), Bankinter S.A. (ES), as well as NatWest Bank Europe GmbH (GER/UK). While ABN AMRO, Rabobank and Bankinter are financing partners of ENCAVIS for years, NatWest provides project financing to ENCAVIS for the first time. ENCAVIS is continuing to increase and to internationalise its universe of banking partners to finance the Groups’s future growth strategy. “This non-recourse refinancing facility is further evidence to the market that we are actively managing our existing financing exposure to optimise financing costs and to benefit from enhanced debt sizing terms as well as streamlined financing structures for the ongoing operational management. Adding NatWest to our club of banks is an additional milestone to support our Accelerated Growth Strategy 2027”, confirms Dr Christoph Husmann, Spokesman of the Management Board and CFO of Encavis AG, this successful refinancing. In total, the refinancing includes EUR 181.5 million Term Loan Facilities (hedged by interest rate swaps), as well as EUR 13 million Letter of Credit Facilities and EUR 8.5 million Debt Service Reserve Facilities.
