Acciona Energía sells a hydroelectric portfolio to the Japanese Orix group

Acciona Energía has reached an agreement with Elawan ​Energy, ⁢a subsidiary of Orix⁤ Corporation, for the sale of 100% of the Acciona Saltos​ de Agua ​group, which directly and indirectly owns hydroelectric facilities in Spain⁢ with⁣ a ⁤consolidated capacity of 175 MW for an amount of 287 million euros. The closure of the operation is subject to the fulfillment of suspensive conditions, expected in the ⁣second half of the current fiscal⁤ year.

Hydroelectric Portfolio Sale

The operation represents the 20%⁤ of Acciona Energía’s installed ⁢hydro capacity and has an average annual production of ‌around 500GWh. ‍The hydroelectric⁤ facilities consist of reservoir plants (77% capacity) and run-of-river plants (23% capacity) of small⁢ and medium size,‍ with long-term concession agreements remaining for an average of 23 years.

Strategic Asset Rotation

Rafael Mateo, CEO of Acciona Energía, highlighted‍ that “this operation showcases the quality of our generation portfolio and represents ⁢a significant milestone in our ‍asset rotation strategy,‌ highlighting the discrepancy between public and private market valuations.” Dionisio Fernández, CEO of Elawan,​ added that “by adding this hydroelectric portfolio to our existing renewable energy sources,​ we aim to further stabilize our energy production and build a solid base of long-term benefits.”

Financial ​Advisory Support

Crédit Agricole has acted as the financial‌ advisor⁢ for Acciona Energía in this ⁤transaction. In⁢ terms of divestment programs, the company is working on various operations in different stages of progress, covering approximately 6 ​GW⁤ of renewable⁣ capacity, of which only a portion is planned to be realized.

Installed Capacity⁤ and Financial Results

The consolidated installed capacity has reached 12,329 MW, with an increase of 1,499 MW in ⁤the last year. The ‌company has 1,734 MW under construction as of the end‍ of June, mainly in various countries including Australia, Spain, the Dominican Republic,⁢ Canada, ‌India, Croatia, and the Philippines.

The⁣ group’s EBITDA for the first half of the year stands at 419 million, a 39% decrease compared to the ⁢same period last year, with a significant reduction in contributions from the Spanish ⁤business ⁤while the International segment remains relatively stable. The net financial debt amounted to 4,606 million, ‌including €514 million of liabilities under NIIF16, representing an increase of 881 million ⁣compared to December 2023. The​ net profit is 65 million, an 84% decrease from the⁤ same​ period last year.
