A somewhat special pride inspires us today : the subject of our last closing, for renewable energies, quite simply imposing with a bundle of solar project of nearly 77 MWp (including 60 already in service, 12 ready to build and 5 in development ). All of the 6 concerned project are capable of proving electricity for the equivalent of up to 38,000 people.
The Envinergy teams led this great transaction on behalf of the seller, a fund managed by Impax Asset Management, which is specializes in opportunities arising from the transition to a more sustainable economy and the investor QUAERO CAPITAL, a company attached responsible investment and sustainability. These solar power plants, which are particularly well integrated into the environment, provide for the involvement of the local community such as eco-grazing. For those to be built and in development, the same approach of co-construction with local actors will be applied.
A fabulous adventure and success for Envinergy! And our teams warmly thank the partners involved in this process, Ravetto Associés, Iroise-avocats , Tevali Partners, Eurocape New Energy France (thanks also to Matthieu Fiocconi, Thomas Lefevre, William Boyer).

Our hydro transactions team is pleased to welcome Olivier BOULAY today.
A financier with strong environmental convictions, Olivier worked for 6 years with a developer for which he was involved in numerous transactions; refinancing, LBO or divestment operations. Olivier has also worked in the forest biomass and paper recycling sector.
To the question “Why Envinergy today?” », Olivier expresses his desire to get closer to the field. “To work in a company on a human scale, I need to meet people. I am a generalist, I wanted to have a vision of the field. I already knew Envinergy for having carried out transactions with them, little by little, a link was woven.

We are pleased today to announce the closing of the Alta Riba project, in the commune of Auterive in Haute-Garonne, 2 hydroelectric power stations totaling 2.3 MW which belonged for nearly a century to the Clamagirand family.
Envinergy would like to thank its partners, the historic owner of the power plants and the buyer, the Barthe group & its associates and their advisers AVOCATIO and Vaughan Avocats for their shared trust and their involvement in the success of this transaction.

We are very happy to have been able to close a sale with Gaïa Energy Systems, which has acquired a ground-mounted solar power plant in Pays de Loire. With a capacity of 6.2 MWp, the plant produces up to 8.2 GWh annually, equivalent to the consumption of around 7,000 people. It should also be noted that this plant offers tracker technology to allow better optimization of performance.
Congratulations to Clément Prouvost, thank you to our solar transaction team and of course, to the stakeholders who made this sale a success!

Sales of a lot of 6 hydroelectric plants are very rare at Envinergy, especially when it is dissociable. Divided between Savoy, tarn, the Alpes de Haute-Provence and the Pyrénées Atlantiques, some of them have notable characteristics: One was built before 1860 by the Italian State and was used to pierce the Fréjus tunnel through the Alps, another, capturing a source with a constant flow, was the 3rd in France to electrify a city in 1985.

A special sale has just taken place with the sale of 2 hydroelectric power stations, including that of Troussy in Millau, where the first industrial VLH turbine was installed. Its inventor, Jacques Fonkenell, made it his demonstration site with the installation of the machine in 2007, for a power of 400 kW under 2.48 m of head. The availability rate of this VLH turbine over a 13-year period exceeded 97%, allowing the production of 1.7 GWh / year of renewable energy in the heart of Millau.
Associated with the Labarthe family, Jacques Fonkenell entrusted us with the mandate of ceding the Forces Motrices de Farebout, also including the power plant of St Léonard de Noblat on the Vienne. The latter hosted one of the first low-speed PMGA permanent magnet alternators, manufactured by MJ2 Technologies S.A.S.
The buyers are members of the Taillefer family, already owners of 2 hydroelectric power plants

We inform you of the start of the sale of 3 plants:
- Disposal of a 400 kW hydroelectric power plant located in Savoy (reference 899 on our website),

Very concerned about its societal and responsible role, Envinergy has been supporting associations working from environmental protection to social inclusion for several years. In 2020, Envinergy has remained very active in this field by supporting 5 associations through an envelope of 44,000 euros:
- Reforest'Action: In an effort to limit its environmental impact, Envinergy has decided to engage with Reforest'Action to sequester the CO2 emissions generated by its activity by participating in the planting of 2000 trees in France,
- Solar Synergy: True to this organization, Envinergy continues to support NGOs carrying humanitarian energy access projects around the world,
- Reed associations, Defeat cystic fibrosis and Godinot Institute: Sensitive to the initiative of the Founders of CALYCE to donate the proceeds of the sale of one of the projects to three causes dear to them during the closing of Operation Hope, Envinergy has made solidarity with this action by abundant a donation to these three associations.

Envinergy is particularly pleased to have accompanied the Jobez family who made the decision in 2020 to sell the family power plant in the Jura. With an installed capacity of 800 kW on the Ain at Pont de Poitte, this plant was built in 1997 on the bases of the family sawmill with the participation of several big names of the profession both for the design and the realization of the turbines.
We therefore have the great pleasure of congratulating Eliteam, an engineering company already operating on hydroelectric power plants around the world, for its entry into the family of hydro producers!
The site will welcome the company's new recruits for training cycles. Good luck to Aurore Maldenat - Maxime Creux in this new adventure!

We inform you of the start of the sale of a portfolio of 22 photovoltaic plants installed on agricultural sheds located in the west of France. This total power of 2.2 MWc will be commissioned in early 2022. The plants are developed and will be built by a company with a leading reputation.

• For a total power of 1200 MW 

“Despite the multiple challenges and delays caused by the solar crisis, Envinergy closed 57  financing and transaction operations for a total power over 1 GW. The impressive growth in financing activities, with our debt raising, LBO and capital increase missions, illustrates the dynamism of Envinergy’s 20  employees who are simultaneously working on 40 operations - all activities combined - since the beginning of this year.
