Formerly part of \u00d8rsted, the business takes on a new name, identity and ambition as Perigus\u00a0Energy.<\/p>\n<p>Perigus Energy looks to support Europe\u2019s energy security and transition by developing, building and\u00a0operating onshore\u00a0wind, solar and battery storage projects in Ireland, Germany,\u00a0the United Kingdom and Spain.\u00a0Today, its portfolio delivers clean,\u00a0home-grown\u00a0and reliable electricity to power the equivalent of circa 600,000 European homes, with five further projects currently under construction in Ireland and Germany.<\/p>\n<p>Perigus\u00a0Energy has a total operational and under-construction capacity of\u00a0826 MW, supported by a resilient commercial structure, combining\u00a0government-backed\u00a0supports schemes and corporate power purchase agreements (CPPAs). All existing contracts, partners and counterparties\u00a0remain\u00a0unaffected by the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Perigus Energy is built on decades of hands-on delivery experience across multiple markets and technologies. Its\u00a0people and projects continue unaffected and with this strong foundation, now with the backing of CIP, the company\u2019s immediate focus is to unlock the full potential of its multi-gigawatt, investment-ready pipeline and bring new renewable capacity in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the news, Kunal Patel, Partner of CIP, said: &#8216;Today marks the completion of an important transaction for CI V and a major milestone for continued growth in European onshore renewables. Perigus Energy combines a proven team, an established operating portfolio and a promising multi-gigawatt pipeline across core European power markets.<\/p>\n<p>We are proud to support Perigus Energy as it accelerates the delivery of clean, reliable and affordable power \u2013 strengthening Europe\u2019s energy security and independence, while\u00a0delivering\u00a0strong, risk-adjusted returns to our investors.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Kieran\u00a0White,\u00a0CEO\u00a0of\u00a0Perigus\u00a0Energy,\u00a0added: &#8216;Perigus Energy is a very exciting next chapter in a long running renewable success story which has evolved from the origins of an Irish farmer\u2019s cooperative and a German family-run business. And so, while\u00a0our name is new, our people are\u00a0experienced, and our mission the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The high volatility in international energy markets demonstrates clearly Europe\u2019s need for secure, home-grown and green electricity. With Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners on board, we will enhance our delivery capability across our multi-gigawatt investment-ready pipeline spanning onshore wind, solar and battery storage. Together, we look forward to advancing renewables to power a secure energy future with care for both society, nature and our people.&#8217;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Headquartered in Cork, Perigus Energy has over 200 people working on site and from offices in Regensburg, Lauf, Potsdam, Essen, Hamburg, London, Edinburgh and Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>More information can be found on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=4pYsNx_sxrr0R0ZH3nRXARa5vEMPA2EWJQtWjok_c9UsxrfWIS3cMCfbSk-xpv6jNLFfVYBh1Lon3F4D5JQRDDvRnltwcoa0-QfDCz4Teag=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">www.perigusenergy.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cip.com\/media-insights\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Original announcement link<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source:\u00a0Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; A new onshore renewable energy company has launched in Europe: Perigus Energy.&#13; Perigus Energy operates in Ireland,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":73774,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[12513,108,835,12503,814,12508,12507,916,12509,12510,12512,12514,856,1343,12516,10035,12517,817,823,12515,12504,12518,12519,12506,12511,12505],"class_list":{"0":"post-73773","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-copenhagen","8":"tag-alternative-energy","9":"tag-copenhagen","10":"tag-drilling","11":"tag-e-p-news","12":"tag-energy","13":"tag-energy-pedia","14":"tag-energy365","15":"tag-exploration-and-production","16":"tag-farmin","17":"tag-farmout","18":"tag-geological-and-geophysical","19":"tag-heavy-oil","20":"tag-hydrocarbon","21":"tag-jobs","22":"tag-licence-round","23":"tag-licensing","24":"tag-noc","25":"tag-offshore","26":"tag-oil","27":"tag-oil-and-gas-condensate","28":"tag-oil-and-gas-exploration","29":"tag-oil-and-gas-ministry","30":"tag-oil-companies","31":"tag-rig","32":"tag-seismic","33":"tag-upstream"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@dk\/116509751853732280","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73773","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73773"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73773\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73774"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73773"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73773"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73773"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
