Echoenergia acquires 346 MW wind farms in North East of Brazil

Actis announced that its newly created wind platform Echoenergia has acquired 100% of 346 MW wind farms in North East of Brazil. The two wind farms, with contracted 20-year PPAs. Tiangua, located in Ceara state, has an installed capacity of 130MW and Sao Clemente, located in Pernambuco state, has 216MW. The acquisitions are seed assets for Echoenergia, the fifth such energy platform that Actis has built in Latin America.

Actis Energy co-head, Michael Till said that this is an important building block that underpins Actis focused strategy of creating scalable energy businesses in key growth markets. Brazil is Latin America´s largest economy and its wind resources are among the best in the world.

With the newly created platform, Echoenergia, Actis aims to expand its footprint in the Brazilian renewable energy sector, replicating the success of Atlantic Energias Renovaveis, a renewable energy platform with 652MW of fully contracted assets.
