Nadara Secures €1.2bn Refinancing for 1.5 GW EU Renewables
Nadara, one of Europe’s leading NextGen Independent Power Producers (IPP), has successfully completed a pan-European refinancing for an amount equivalent to approximately €1.2 billion. The transaction consolidates and refinances a highly diversified portfolio of operating renewable assets and establishes a scalable financing platform to support the company’s continued growth.
A diversified renewable portfolio across Europe
The financing covers 47 onshore wind and photovoltaic plants with a total installed capacity of 1.5 GW across Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Sweden, Norway and Finland. This strengthens the company’s financial flexibility and its ability to expand a multi-technology portfolio.
The portfolio consists of 34 onshore wind farms and 13 solar photovoltaic plants, benefiting from significant geographic and technological diversification, contracted revenues, and Nadara’s integrated energy management and operational capabilities.
Strengthening financial flexibility and long-term growth
This refinancing marks a major milestone for Nadara, reinforcing its financial flexibility and providing a scalable platform to continue optimizing its pan-European renewable energy business. By consolidating a broad and diversified portfolio of operating assets under a single financing framework, Nadara enhances its ability to integrate new assets, advance repowering, hybridization and battery storage projects, and support further organic and inorganic growth across its strategic markets.
The transaction was underwritten by a syndicate of leading financial institutions, reflecting strong market confidence in Nadara’s platform, the quality of its assets, and its long-term growth strategy. It further consolidates the company’s position as one of Europe’s leading NextGen IPPs.
