February 2025 - Astris Finance Advises on the Sale of Project El Fenazar, a 30 MW Solar PV Asset in Spain

Madrid, February 2025 – Astris Finance is pleased to announce the successful closing of the project El Fenazar, a 30 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) asset located in Murcia, Spain, which has been acquired by GS Inima, a global leader in environmental services specializing in the integral water and energy cycle. The transaction was completed in December 2024.

The project, developed to Ready-to-Build (RtB) status, will integrate bifacial modules and solar tracking technology, optimizing energy generation to reach an expected 60,000 MWh per year, equivalent to the consumption of more than 5,500 households. With all permits obtained, construction is set to commence in Q4 2025 and is expected to be completed within two years, with commissioning planned for 2027.

After a period of slower development due to permitting challenges, low energy prices, and high financing costs, Spain’s renewable energy sector is showing signs of recovery. Investor appetite is strengthening, particularly for high-quality, shovel-ready assets, as European decarbonization targets and improving market conditions help restore confidence. The increasing availability of financing for mature projects and a renewed focus on grid capacity improvements are further supporting this positive momentum.

Astris Finance acted as exclusive financial advisor to the seller, a leading European private equity firm specialized in the energy transition, with over 25 years of experience in the renewable energy sector and a strong presence across Europe with more than €6.3 billion of assets under management. This transaction further strengthens Astris Finance’s track record in Spain’s renewable energy sector, where the firm is currently advising on 8 equity and financing transactions.
