On 25 May 2022, the Hamburg-based solar and wind farm operator Blue Elephant Energy AG (BEE) acquired a construction-ready PV plant in the Netherlands with a capacity of 10 MWp from its long-standing business partner Greencells Group (Greencells), a global service provider for the development, construction, and maintenance of utility-scale solar power plants.
The project is located in the municipality of Hoogeveen in the Northeast of the Netherlands. The plant is an extension to the operating 30 MW-PV plant Hoogeveen I and shall be connected to the grid by the end of 2022. The project benefits from a feed-in-tariff under the SDE-regime. “We are pleased to be able to further expand our portfolio in the Netherlands to 631 MW and to further strengthen our excellent local market position”, comments Tim Kallas, Chief Investment Officer of Blue Elephant Energy. “We still see potential in the Netherlands to drive renewable energy projects supporting the continent on its path to carbon neutrality and energy independence. With Greencells we have a long-standing partnership that further led to the existing project development cooperation of 237 MW in the Netherlands and Italy.” Andreas Hoffmann, CEO of Greencells GmbH: “We are pleased to be able to consistently continue our success story in the highly attractive European solar market and with our long-standing partner BEE with this transaction. The full implementation of our secured development pipeline in Europe of 3.5 GW, scheduled by the end of 2023, is thus progressing as planned. As a fully integrated platform for utility-scale solar projects, we will also benefit in the long term from our particularly high value creation between project development as well as EPC and O&M.” About Blue Elephant Energy AG: Blue Elephant Energy AG (BEE) develops, acquires, and operates solar parks and wind farms in eight countries with a focus on Western-Europe.
