NEW YORK, April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking (Natixis CIB) alongside three other international commercial banks has successfully closed the $176.6 million senior secured green financing for a c. 300 MW solar PV asset in Peru sponsored by Solarpack Corporación Tecnológica S.A.U. ("Solarpack"), a Spain-based global independent power producer. Natixis CIB acted as Joint Bookrunner, Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Green Loan Coordinator, and Administrative Agent.

The transaction will support the construction, operation, and maintenance of the c. 300MW San Martin solar PV plant in southern Peru.

"Natixis CIB has a proven track record of financing renewable energy infrastructure in the LatAm region. This transaction represents yet another example of how Natixis contributes to support our clients' strategic investments in the region and the energy transition (largest solar PV financing in the history of Peru)," said Aitor Alava, Head of Infrastructure & Energy Finance LatAm at Natixis CIB.
