The portfolio consists of 15 wind farms in Navarre, Zaragoza, Ciudad Real, Palencia, Guadalajara, and Seville. The assets sold to the Portuguese company’s renewable energy division have an average operational age of 21 years.
The transaction was signed and closed simultaneously, with Acciona Energía receiving the full agreed amount at closing. The transaction is expected to generate an estimated capital gain of €255 million. Clifford Chance advised Galp, with a team led by Corporate/M&A partners Pablo Murcia and Luis Alonso. It was also announced that BNP Paribas and Baker McKenzie acted as financial and legal advisors, respectively, to Acciona Energía.
The sale represents a further step in Acciona Energía’s selective asset rotation strategy, aimed at maximizing the value of its projects and optimizing capital allocation, while strengthening the company’s financial position.
