Madrid, April 20th, 2026 — ABEI Energy and Nomura have successfully closed a €175 million HoldCo financing agreement, marking a key milestone in ABEI Energy’s strategic transformation and growth across Europe. The financing will support the development, construction, and operation of ABEI’s renewable energy pipeline across Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
The funds will primarily be allocated to cover capital expenditure requirements for projects that are currently in Ready-to-Build (RtB) and under construction stages, reinforcing ABEI Energy’s execution capabilities and accelerating project delivery timelines. Nomura acted as Mandated Lead Arranger and Underwriter in the transaction, underscoring its confidence in ABEI’s business model and long-term vision.
This agreement represents a significant step forward in ABEI Energy’s strategic evolution toward becoming a fully integrated Independent Power Producer (IPP). The company is actively transitioning from a developer-focused model to one centered on owning and operating renewable assets, enabling the generation of stable and recurring EBITDA through long-term energy sales.
Iván Barahona León, Chief Operating Officer of ABEI Energy, stated:
“This agreement strengthens ABEI Energy’s position and aligns with our long-term strategy of building and operating our own renewable energy assets. We are proud to partner with Nomura, a globally recognized financial institution, and excited to continue growing together.”
Nomura also highlighted the strategic relevance of this partnership. Michele Mattana, Managing Director – Infrastructure and Power Finance at Nomura, commented:
“We are pleased to support ABEI’s transition to an Independent Power Producer and its European expansion. We value ABEI’s diversified portfolio of solar PV, wind and battery energy storage systems (BESS) across Spain, Italy, and the UK.”
Xavier Nicolaou, Managing Director at Nomura, added:
“This financing represents a strong vote of confidence in ABEI Energy’s experienced management team and their proven execution capabilities. The company has already demonstrated its ability to successfully bring projects online, and this support will enable further growth of its operational portfolio.”
The transaction also reflects the strength and attractiveness of ABEI Energy’s diversified renewable platform, which combines solar photovoltaic, wind, and energy storage technologies across multiple European markets. This multi-technology approach enhances resilience, optimizes energy generation, and supports the integration of renewable energy into the grid.
ABEI Energy acknowledged the contribution of key advisors involved in the transaction, including EY-Parthenon, A&O Shearman, and Gómez-Acebo & Pombo, whose expertise and collaboration played a fundamental role in the successful closing of the agreement.
With this new financing in place, ABEI Energy reinforces its commitment to scaling its renewable portfolio, strengthening its position as an IPP, and contributing to Europe’s energy transition through sustainable, long-term infrastructure investment.
