Project scope and objective
The Project involves the expansion of the non-conventional renewable energy (NCRE) generation capacity across Argentina for approximately 160MW, based on the expected available new funding to be subscripted through the financing. It is expected that new NCRE projects will reduce annually 257 ktons of CO2 emissions.
The estimated total financing will be up to US$ 333.5 million over which IDB Invest will directly contribute up to US$ 33.5 million. The remaining amount will be subscribed by institutional investors who will buy part of IDB Invest’s participation through a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) that will issue B- Bonds (4(a)2 Notes or 144A Reg S Notes).
