ENERGY COMMERCIALIZATION

With a track record of winning more than 1000 GWh of PPA contracts in Latin America, our company utilizes our fundamental understanding of the market to structure advantageous bilateral PPA opportunities focused on bankable long-term and stable contracts with credit-worthy sponsors. Our management team was the first to sign a private market bilateral solar PV PPA without subsidies; this achievement served as a catalyst for the industry in Latin America.

PROJECT DEVELOPMENT

Our management team has been a key pioneer of the renewable energy industry in Latin America, with a number of ‘firsts’ across the region (including the first utility scale project in Latin America). We have developed over 800 MW of greenfield projects that have successfully closed financing across multiple jurisdictions within Latin America. Our company is recognized for its focus on full-cycle levelized cost of electricity (LCOE); our aim is to maximize the asset’s potential to reduce LCOE in order to achieve the best value to our clients, while simultaneously minimizing risk.

CAPITAL STRUCTURING

Leveraging our long-term relationships with leading financial institutions, we’ve raised over $1.5 billion USD across five Latin American markets, and with over a dozen banks. We define a tailored capital solution to each project utilizing traditional project finance, capital markets, mezzanine, and other non-traditional financing structures.
