10 September: Renewable energy investment firm Cubico Sustainable Investments has entered into agreements to acquire three operational, fixed-tilt, ground-mounted solar PV projects in the Algarve, Portugal, totalling 29.4MW, from CEF Energia Ibérica B.V., a solar power plant company backed by Glennmont Partners.

The three solar PV projects to be acquired are Avalades (15.8MW), Ferreiras (6.8MW) and Sol Cativante V (6.8MW).

David Swindin, head of EMEA at Cubico said: “This is a unique acquisition for Cubico and adds to our growing portfolio of renewable energy assets with very strong contracted revenue profiles.

Cubico’s team in Madrid will be responsible for managing the plants going forward and Voltalia will continue to provide full-scope O&M services. Following the acquisition, Cubico’s Iberian portfolio will comprise eight assets, with a total capacity of 209MW, across solar PV, solar thermal and wind technologies.
