Munich, March 2026 - Astris Finance congratulates ENERPARC, a global specialist in megawatt-scale solar power plants, for the closing of a €500m medium-term junior debt facility, aiming at providing a significant share of the construction equity for projects in Germany, France, and Spain over the next five years – on a scale that is exceptional in the renewable energy segment.

With a fully owned portfolio of PV projects in operation or under construction of approx. 5GW, ENERPARC is Germany’s leading solar IPP. After commissioning 1.2 GW of new solar capacity in 2025, ENERPARC is now planning an increase in the expansion volume for 2026, as well as a significant ramp-up of its battery storage systems (BESS): 24 BESS with around 220 MWh are currently in operation or under construction, the majority of which are co-location storage systems in combination with the company's own solar parks.

The €500m junior loan, structured and placed by Astris, is provided by a consortium of three global asset managers: EIG, Schroders Capital and Eiffel Investment Group. This underscores the confidence of renowned financing partners in the development of renewable energies and in the long-term prospects of the German market.

ENERPARC CEO Christoph Koeppen: “This milestone junior financing structured and placed by Astris Finance provides us with the resources to accelerate our contribution to the energy transition – including the energy storage space – and our international expansion. We are grateful to the Astris Finance team who worked hand in hand with our internal finance team and spared no effort to close this innovative financing.”

Astris Finance Head of European Operations Arnaud Germain and Head of DACH Dennis Schroeder said: “we want to thank the ENERPARC team for the trust they placed in Astris Finance and the great cooperation in setting-up this high-profile financing. We are very pleased with the outcome: we worked under a very tight timeline, arranging and closing this tailor-made financing in just under six months. With EIG, Schroders Capital and Eiffel Investment Group, we selected a group of sophisticated lenders, whose intimate knowledge of the renewable sector and willingness to adapt to the operational setup of ENERPARC have been key success factors.”

Astris Finance CEO Fabrice Henry added: “We have been impressed by the robustness and sophistication of the ENERPARC industrial machine, and we designed a financing structure that will provide the firepower needed for this machine to keep growing over the next several years – without diluting the ENERPARC shareholders at a time where the equity markets are dislocated and would only provide very expensive capital.”

Astris acted as exclusive financial advisor to ENERPARC. This landmark transaction is not only a great achievement in its own right — it also marks the beginning of what we believe will be an excellent relationship with ENERPARC, and a meaningful step forward in expanding our German franchise and growing our Munich based team.
