Pacifico Energy Partners is pleased to announce the closing of a senior financing of €11.3 million for the 14.1 MW Hernen solar PV project in the municipality of Wijchen, Netherlands. The project is currently in construction and first electricity production is expected at the end of 2021.
Triodos Groenfonds and Triodos Bank (together “Triodos”) will provide non-recourse senior debt financing and ancillary facilities to the project company as joint lenders. The 16-year tenor exceeds the 15-year SDE+ subsidy that the project had secured in 2019.
