To raise these funds, ReneSola has entered into securities purchase agreements with several institutional investors for the purchase and sale of 2.5 million American Depository Shares (ADS)– each representing ten ordinary shares – at a purchase price of $16 per ADS.

Last week, the solar firm announced a joint venture with France-headquartered asset management firm Eiffel Investment Group, with the duo looking to establish the entity that will provide financing for ReneSola’s current and future PV projects across Europe.

This comes after another joint venture was formed, this one – revealed in October 2020 – being with subsidy-free solar platform Novergy, with the purpose of continuing to develop an existing 100MW pipeline.

It follows ReneSola taking the decision to refocus on its core markets, including developments in the UK, Spain and the US, having zeroed in on the US as of late, moving its headquarters to Stamford, Connecticut last year.
