Q-Energy Deutschland GmbH ("Q-Energy") prevails in a bidding process conducted by Capcora and acquires a wind farm in Southern Germany. The project is currently planned with a total capacity of 27.5 MW. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price. Capcora, a German-based consulting firm, acted as M&A advisor to the seller in this transaction.

The wind farm, located in Baden-Württemberg, will now be jointly advanced under the partnership. Commissioning of the first turbines is scheduled for 2025. After its construction, the wind farm is expected to produce approx. 60 million kWh of electricity per year and can thus supply approx. 15,000 households with climate-friendly electricity.

Niklas Hinz, Head of Investments Q-Energy Germany, explains: "Against the background of the improvements for wind energy in southern Germany announced in the Easter package, we are pleased to further diversify our portfolio with this project. In addition to repowering projects, we are increasingly investing in new developments and with the acquisition of this wind farm we can also prove our competitiveness in this segment."

Consulting firm Capcora identified Q-Energy as an investor as part of a structured bidding process.

Henning Prigge, responsible director at Capcora for this transaction, adds: "We are pleased that we were able to help our client find the right buyer for this exciting project. Especially in times of rising interest rates and commodity prices as well as volatile energy markets, good access to institutional capital as well as strong partners for project development and implementation can bring great advantages."

The seller was advised on the legal side by KWR Kanzlei für Wirtschaftsrecht Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH (Dr Mark-Oliver Otto), while Q-Energy was supported in the transaction by Reuther Rieche Partnerschaft von Rechtsanwälten mbB (Janina Reuther, Jonathan Reuther, Thomas Rieche and Tim Stahlberg).
