2018 Key Event Financing for a floating photovoltaic solar power plant

Natixis Energeco financed an innovative project for Akuo Energy—the first of its kind in France—for the installation of a floating photovoltaic power plant with 50,000 solar panels in Piolenc in the Vaucluse department. The plant’s capacity is 17 MWc, equivalent to the electricity consumption of over 5,000 homes. This new technology solves the problem of the lack of available land for new solar energy farms by making use of space not subject to rival demand. Coordinator for the Neoen IPO, named IPO of the Year by Euronext Natixis was Global Coordinator for the initial public offering of Neoen, a major player in the renewable energy sector.
