Levanta Renewables acquires a 9.5MWp Commercial and Industrial portfolio from a leading regional developer

SINGAPORE, 23 August 2024 – Levanta Renewables (“Levanta”), a leading Southeast Asia-focused renewable energy developer and independent power producer backed by Actis, a leading global investor in sustainable infrastructure, is acquiring six (6) solar photovoltaic (PV) projects for its Commercial and Industrial (“C&I”) Business from a regional renewable energy projects developer. The portfolio consists of high-quality solar PV assets with long-term Power Purchase Agreements (“PPAs”) signed with leading Global 500 multinational corporations.

This strategic acquisition spans three sites in Malaysia, two in Indonesia, and one in Thailand, collectively adding 9.5MWp to Levanta’s portfolio. The projects will generate over 13 GWh annually, providing clean, renewable electricity to corporate buyers.

This acquisition is strategically important to Levanta as it represents an expansion of our three key markets, solidifying our position as a leading renewable energy provider for C&I and Utility customers.

These projects will significantly strengthen our C&I Business, enhancing our presence in the region. This acquisition increases our capacity and enables us to accelerate providing on-site and off-site regional energy solutions for the commercial and industrial sectors.

We are excited to see Levanta’s growing assets in Southeast Asia across both utility scale projects and C&I projects. At Actis, we understand the fundamental role renewable energy plays as corporates look to meet their net zero targets and also in the process procure more affordable and cleaner energy. We are excited to continue to support this green energy transformation through Levanta.

The completion of the transaction is subject to and conditional upon certain customary conditions, including regulatory and other approvals. The transaction is expected to close before the end of 2024.

This transaction follows Levanta’s recent announcement to acquire a 27.8MWp rooftop solar system in Vietnam and the acquisition of a 139MWp utility scale solar portfolio in Thailand.
