Capcora, a consulting company based in Germany, supports a German project developer in an extensive cooperation with Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH ("Qualitas Energy"). The aim is to jointly bring a selected project portfolio in Germany to the ready-to-build stage. The currently planned twelve projects in various stages of development are mainly located in Baden-Württemberg. Qualitas Energy was identified as the preferred partner in a structured bidding process.

The seller chose Qualitas Energy due to attractive conditions, professional team and high transaction security. In the context of the transaction, a comprehensive cooperation between the parties was agreed. Qualitas Energy will take over project development and implementation tasks in coordination with the seller. The commissioning of the first project is scheduled for the end of 2023, further projects will follow successively in the coming years and are to be implemented by 2027 at the latest.

Niklas Hinz, Head of Investments Qualitas Energy Deutschland GmbH, is convinced: "This is an attractive opportunity for us to enter into a high-quality project portfolio at an early stage and to relieve our development partner of the increasingly complex projects. We are happy to take on pre-developed projects and can use our resources to bring them quickly to construction readiness and commissioning."

Henning Prigge, responsible director at Capcora for this transaction, adds: "After years of intensive preliminary work in project development, our client is pleased to hand over the to a reliable and financially strong partner. In addition to financial aspects, synergy effects in the further implementation of the projects were particularly important in the selection of investors."
