(Alliance News) - Renewables Infrastructure Group Ltd on Monday reported the closure of its partial equity sale in the Gode One offshore wind farm for EUR100 million, with its two-year total divestment proceeds now totalling GBP210 million.

The Guernsey-based renewable energy investment company said it completed the sale of a 15.2% equity interest in the 350-megawatt Gode One offshore wind farm project in Germany. The firm acquired a 25% stake in the project in 2019.

Renewables Infrastructure first announced the sale to funds managed by Equitix Investment Management Ltd in August last year.

It said this occurred at a 9% premium to the carrying value, with proceeds of EUR100 million having been received and utilised to reduce its borrowings under its revolving credit facility to GBP228 million.

Renewables Infrastructure still holds a 9.8% interest in the project.

It added that following the sale completion, its total divestment proceeds over the last two years is GBP210 million, at an average 11% premium to carrying values.

The firm said divestments and financings being pursued by managers underpinned its decision to treble its buyback programme in February to GBP150 million from GBP50 million.

Renewables Infrastructure shares rose 1.0% to 73.00 pence on Monday morning in London.
