ENCAVIS and Innovar Solar sign framework agreement for the development of 500 MW of solar projects in Germany
Hamburg, 17 September 2024 – The MDAX-listed wind and solar park operator Encavis AG (Prime Standard, ISIN: DE0006095003, ticker symbol: ECV) and Innovar Solar GmbH, a fast-growing developer
of solar projects, have signed a framework agreement for the development of solar projects in Germany with a rolling capacity of 500 megawatts (MW). ‘Rolling’ here means that if individual projects
are successfully developed, new projects will follow, so that 500 MW will always be developed in parallel. The same mechanism applies to projects that do not reach ready-to-build (RTB) status
within a defined timeframe.
‘The partnership with Encavis is a further step in our endeavour to realise innovative and sustainable solar projects in Germany. The framework agreement with Encavis for 500 MW gives us the
opportunity to drive the energy transition forward even faster,’ says Stefan Veltrup, Managing Director of Innovar Solar GmbH.
Mario Schirru, CIO/COO of Encavis AG, adds: ‘The trustful cooperation with Innovar Solar enables us to further expand our solar capacities in Germany from the current 412 MW and to consolidate
our position as one of the leading independent producers of electricity from renewable energies in Europe.’
The development of the projects has already begun.
