ENERCON Sales & Finance Partners support customer with equity and project financing expertise / Signing of Engagement Letter during WindEnergy Hamburg
Supporting our customers beyond the delivery and installation of wind turbines: Today, we signed an Engagement Letter with our long-standing customer Deutsche WindXperts – and thus paved the way for a new wind farm project! WindXperts will benefit from our equity and project financing expertise to realize its 50 MW project with ten wind turbines while keeping 100% ownership in their projects.
With our in-house experts from ENERCON Sales & Finance Partners (ESFP) we support our customers in bringing their projects to life and at the same time filling individual equity, energy marketing or financing gaps. In this way, we create a significant value-add for our customers and jointly contribute to a successful energy transition.
‘WindXpert’s expectation as a project developer is recovery of a significant portion of permitting cost as well as access to bridge financing e.g. for grid connection cost. Access to these funds via ESFP advice prior to Financial Close has been an additional driver for our decision to order wind turbines from ENERCON’, said Lars Behrends, Managing Director WindXperts.
‘Our holistic approach reduces risks and increases the profitability of our customers' projects. New wind farms will be realized with greater reliability, shorter lead times and besides, we achieve more attractive financing conditions. A real “win-win” situation for everyone involved’, Wolfgang Fettig, Global Head of ENERCON Sales & Finance Partners states.
