We advised OX2 on an agreement to sell a 99.2 MW onshore wind project in Romania to Nala Renewables, a joint venture between IFM Investors and Trafigura. This transaction, valued at SEK 2.48 billion (approximately EUR 214 million), is the first sale in Romania for OX2, which strengthens its position in this growing market. A wind farm project comprising 16 Vestas turbines is set to be constructed in Eastern Romania, with OX2 overseeing the build and subsequent management, including a 12-year power purchase agreement. The project, which begins construction in Q3 2024 and is expected to be operational by H1 2026, has secured grid access via Transelectrica. The A&O Shearman team was led by Kamil Jankielewicz, and included Antoni Roszkowski and Farah Y.. Congratulations to Marta Pruszynska and Andree Mladin, who led the OX2 team, and to Olli Hagqvist, who led the PPA workstream. A heartfelt thank you to Mihai Ristici and Vlad Stamatescu, along with the entire RTPR team, for coordinating the Romanian aspects of the transaction. EY’s King Charpentier acted as financial advisor to OX2. We would also like to thank the Nala Renewables team and their legal advisor CMS for their cooperation. Kamil Jankielewicz said: “We are immensely proud to have advised OX2 on the successful sale of a wind farm in Romania. This deal not only underscores the robust growth and potential within the renewable energy sector in Eastern Europe, but also highlights the strategic importance of sustainable investments in our global economy. Our team at A&O Shearman, with its deep expertise and commitment to excellence, worked closely with OX2 to navigate the complexities of this cross-border transaction, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. This sale is a testament to OX2's leadership in renewable energy and their dedication to contributing to a greener future. We are honored to have played a role in this significant milestone and look forward to supporting OX2 as they continue to expand their renewable energy footprint across Europe”. https://lnkd.in/dV3fPkiV
