NESF is pleased to announce the signing and completion of three
separate share purchase agreements, with unrelated counterparties,
to acquire special purpose vehicles owning North Farm, Birch and
Thurlestone.
North Farm is a 11.5MWp operating solar power plant that was
commissioned in March 2015. The plant has been accredited under the
1.4 Renewable Obligation Certificate regime.
Birch was constructed under an Engineering, Procurement and
Construction contract negotiated by NESF's investment advisor,
NextEnergy Capital Limited, and has been connected since June
2015.
The Thurlestone portfolio comprises some 700 rooftops in
Leicestershire which were connected between November 2012 and June
2013. Thurlestone is NESF's first acquisition of a rooftop
portfolio and the Company expects to expand in this market
segment.
Both Birch and Thurlestone receive the Feed-in-Tariff incentive,
enabling NESF to diversify the composition of its revenue
sources.
