Actis buys 194 Mw operational solar power assets from Shapoorji Pallonji
Shapoorji Pallonji Infrastructure Capital (SP Infra) today announced it has sold 194 Megawatt of operating solar power portfolio to Sprng Energy, a renewable energy platform by private equity firm Actis.
The transaction closed last week with all customary approvals in place, the company said in a statement without sharing the size of the deal value. S P Infra had last year decided to divest a part of its operating portfolio in order to redeploy capital for the development of new solar projects. Commenting on the acquisition, Sanjiv Aggarwal, Partner-Energy Asia at Actis, said the acquisition of the portfolio is in line with the company's commitment of building over 2 Gigawatt of renewable power projects in India. “With this acquisition, the total operating and under construction capacity of Sprng Energy, our 100 per cent-owned renewable platform, will increase to 1,650 Mw and we continue to look for opportunities to grow this portfolio further through both M&A and new bids,” he said.
Credit Suisse acted as financial advisor and Khaitan & Co were the legal advisors to SP Infra for this transaction. Standard Chartered Bank acted as exclusive financial advisors and Trilegal acted as legal advisors to Actis.
