In Italy, this financing for the Enfinity Global project amounts to €142 million for the construction of three solar parks. Banks, including Santander CIB and BayernLB, provide this financing. The solar plants represent a total of 72MW with an additional 40MW.
These banking institutions act as mandated lead arrangers for each deal club financing. This structure includes €85 million of debt financing and €57 million of VAT financing and facilities. Carlos Domenech, CEO of Enfinity Global, said:
