Juwi has secured a new €300 million (US$377 million) finance package, clearing a key hurdle for its proposed takeover by MVV Energie.

Juwi agreed the deal in October but the deal was dependent on the completion of the financial restructuring. The path is now cleared for utility MVV to take its 50.1% stake in the developer and will inject €99.4 million (US$124.7 million) of equity into the business.
