Macquarie Asset Management and Hydro Rein have commenced full commercial operations ahead of schedule at the 456 MW Ventos de São Zacarias (VSZ) wind power complex in northeast Brazil. “Today’s milestone is a demonstration of our commitment to generating positive long-term outcomes for our clients, portfolio companies and communities,” said Fernando Lohmann, Brazil Country Lead for Macquarie Asset Management. “We remain dedicated to strengthening the critical infrastructure of Brazil through Ventos de São Zacarias and other investments in the future.” The VSZ complex includes 10 wind parks with 80 turbines, with another 157 MW solar complex under development nearby. The 120m tall turbines are connected together in a network with nearly 150 kilometers of medium voltage cables. “This achievement marks a significant step forward in our mission to promote renewable energy solutions and decarbonise industries in Brazil,” noted Marcela Jacob, MBA, MSc, Head of Hydro Rein in Brazil. VSZ supplies power to Hydro’s Alunorte alumina refinery and Paragominas bauxite mine through long-term agreements, with additional output sold on the open market. The project also marks the first US dollar-denominated wind complex in Brazil financed solely by commercial banks, following Macquarie Asset Management’s acquisition of a 49.9% stake in Hydro Rein. This complex is Hydro Rein’s third power plant operation in Brazil, complementing its solar facilities in Rio Grande do Norte and Minas Gerais, which began operations earlier in 2024. VSZ has integrated international environmental practices as set out by the IFC - International Finance Corporation. Adhering to IFC Performance Standard 6, the project is committed to No Net Loss of biodiversity, with the commitment supported by a tree nursery producing over 20,000 seedlings for reforestation and agricultural programs aimed at local livelihood restoration. Other community-driven initiatives focus on improving living standards and supporting local economic development. #cleanenergy

Ignacio Paz-Ares, Managing Partner in Brookfield’s Renewable Power & Transition Group, commented: “As our first investment in UK rooftop solar, we see huge potential in this sector. “We are excited to support the team and help accelerate the growth of solar in the U.K., a technology that plays a critical role in the future energy mix and achieving the country’s decarbonisation goals.” The Renewable Energy management team at Atrato will transition into a newly created business and will continue its mandate to develop and invest in clean energy infrastructure for UK-based corporates. “I’d like to thank the investors in Atrato Onsite Energy plc that supported us at IPO in 2021,” noted Gurpreet Gujral, CEO of Atrato Onsite Energy. “Their commitment at this early stage of our business enabled us to grow into the leading commercial and rooftop solar portfolio in the U.K. over the last three years. We are excited about the next chapter of our business and have an opportunity to invest significant capital into our existing pipeline of opportunities, which has manifested through offering U.K. corporates a simple solution to procuring clean energy at an economic price.” Under the new ownership, Atrato plans to invest approximately £1 billion by 2030 in rooftop solar, which is expected to increase the solar capacity in the UK by over 1GW. Atrato’s currently pipeline is valued at £400 million, with ongoing projects for major corporates, including Tesco, Britvic plc, Marks and Spencer, and Nissan Motor Corporation. John Rowland, CFA, Partner at Real Assets Investment Management, commented: “We are delighted to announce the acquisition of the Atrato Onsite Energy’s assets. “Not only is it a high-quality portfolio with contracted revenues backed by strong credit counterparties, but also the opportunity to partner with a high-quality management team with an excellent track record. We look forward to working with the team to continue to grow the platform, investing in projects to help businesses meet their decarbonisation goals.” “Brookfield’s backing will build on the progress that was made as a listed business, enabling the new private company to accelerate investment in the market, delivering clean and economic energy to businesses across the country,” remarked Juliet Davenport, Chair of Atrato Onsite Energy plc. #cleanenergy
