DIF Capital Partners and ib vogt, a German construction company, have agreed to purchase a 100 per cent share in a 720 MW solar and battery project portfolio in the UK. The portfolio will be purchased from Enso Green Holdings (EGHL), a Cero Generation and Enso Energy joint company with headquarters in the UK. It consists of seven project sites, with battery storage making up the remaining 340 MW of its 380 MW capacity. 

Ib Vogt will provide the portfolio’s operations and maintenance (O&M) services as well as solar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) capabilities. The projects have been developed by EGHL and are understood to be in the ready-to-build stage. All are expected to be acquired by later this year and are due to come online between 2024 and 2026.

In December 2022, Helen Energy announced the acquisition of a 206 MWp solar PV plant in Finland from ib vogt. No financial details have been disclosed. The solar farm is situated in Kalanti, Uusikaupunki district, and is currently in the ready to be built stage. The construction work on the site is expected to start in the second quarter of 2023.
