Acquisition of Neilston Community Wind Farm
The Board of TRIG is pleased to announce that the Company has completed the acquisition of a 100% interest in a UK operational wind farm, Neilston Community Wind Farm (the "Project"), a 10MW onshore wind project in East Renfrewshire, Scotland.
The Project has been acquired by TRIG from the private developer Carbon Free and Neilston Development Trust for a total consideration of £22.6 million without any third-party project debt. The Project has been accredited under the UK's 20‐year 1.0 ROC per MWh support scheme and has been operating for four years. The Project comprises four Nordex N90 wind turbine generators, each with a rated capacity of 2.5MW, and benefits from a power purchase agreement with Statkraft.
TRIG's investment in the Project has been financed from the proceeds of the recent equity raising under TRIG's share issuance programme. The investment increases TRIG's portfolio to 54 projects with aggregate net generating capacity of 720MW.
