Renewables firm<\/strong> Masdar ha<\/strong>s signed an agreement with Spanish energy firm<\/strong> Iberdrola to jointly invest in <\/strong>the 1.4 GW East Anglia Three offshore wind farm in the UK<\/strong>, according to a press release (pdf)<\/a>. The project is expected to begin initial operations in 4Q next year. <\/p>\n

The breakdown:<\/strong> Masdar and Iberdrola will each hold a 50% stake in the EUR 5.2 bn (c. AED 22.4 bn) project. Some GBP 3.5 bn (around EUR 4.1 bn) in project financing has already been secured from 24 international banks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong> East Anglia Three<\/a> is being developed by ScottishPower Renewables, the UK arm of Iberdrola, under the larger East Anglia Hub program. Siemens Gamesa was awarded<\/a> the GBP 1.3 bn turbine supply contract for the project to deliver 95 of its 14.7 MW offshore turbines. <\/p>\n

Masdar and Iberdrola are doing a lot together: <\/strong>The two firms also worked on completing and operating the Baltic Eagle offshore wind farm<\/a> in the German Baltic Sea as part of a broader partnership. <\/p>\n

Masdar is active in the UK:<\/strong> Last year, Masdar finalized the acquisition of a 49% stake<\/a> in the UK\u2019s 3 GW Dogger Bank South wind farm from German energy giant RWE as part of a larger GBP 11 bn joint investment ticket into UK renewables. Masdar and RWE are also operating the 630 MW London Array<\/a> offshore wind farm. <\/p>\n

\u2026and in Europe:<\/strong> Earlier in March, Masdar inked an agreement to acquire a strategic minority stake of 49.99% in four solar assets owned by Spanish utility firm Endesa for EUR 184 mn<\/a>. The state-owned firm also acquired Spanish renewables firm Saeta Yield<\/a> from Brookfield Renewable last year for EUR 1.2 bn. Last year also saw it acquire a 70% stake in Greece\u2019s Terna Energy, and it is also said to be eyeing an undisclosed stake in the Portuguese renewable assets of TotalEnergies<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
