Helexia bags EUR 60m for European solar rooftop, carport portfolio

Helexia, a subsidiary of French renewables company Voltalia SA (EPA:VLTSA), announced it has secured a EUR-60-million (USD 66.7m) financing package to advance a portfolio of 290 operational photovoltaic (PV) rooftops and solar carports across six European countries.

The newly completed incremental financing facility builds upon the company’s previous EUR-90-million pan-European debt financing secured in June 2023. It will support assets across France, Italy, Belgium, Portugal, Spain and Hungary, the company said in a statement today.

“We are thrilled to secure this additional financing, which allows us to further expand our renewable energy expertise across Europe. This financing is a testament to our commitment to delivering the energy transition and supporting sustainable development,” Helexia’s CEO Benjamin Simonis noted.

The transaction was arranged by Bpifrance and La Banque Postale, with the participation of La Banque Postale Asset Management.

Launched in 2010, Helexia has completed over 1,785 PV projects with a combined capacity of 386 MW. The company has more than 470 employees across 11 countries.
