Recent projects with direct or indirect participation from the Zero Beta Investments team

Active participation in the acquisition, financing, construction, refinancing, and sale of the 142MWp project portfolio during the period working at an international photovoltaic module manufacturer [Q2 2014-Q1 2018].

The solar portfolio consisted of 24 operational solar power plants in England, Wales, and Scotland under the UK's Renewable Obligation Certificate (ROC) and Feed-In Tariff (FIT) schemes.

The portfolio was eventually sold to a private equity fund that valued the portfolio at approximately GBP 191.2 million (US$ 267.7 million).

The 24 solar power plants generate approximately 142,000 MWh of clean energy annually, enough energy to power approximately 46,000 UK households and reduce CO2 emissions by 56,800 tons per year.

Other benefits: In addition, three of the solar power plants in this portfolio provided an additional benefit under the Anglo-Saxon Community Interest Companies (CIC) scheme, where the profits benefit a community.
