Who is our customer
Parque Eólico Marcona is a 32MW wind project located in Ica, Peru. The Project is developed, built, owned and operated by Spain-based Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios (Cobra), a 100% subsidiary and main industrial contractor of Spain-based ACS. The project has been awarded a 20 year Renewable Energy Supply Concession and benefits from priority dispatch and a take-or-pay structure.
What is our funding objective?
The sponsors and lenders finance the development, construction and operations of the 32MW wind farm, which together with the adjacent wind farm Tres Hermanas (97MW), constitutes one of the largest wind farms built in Peru to date. The project , by providing energy to the grid in the southern part of Peru, contributes to Peru's target of having 5% of its energy coming from renewable energy sources.
Why do we fund this investment?
The Project fits well within the energy strategy of FMO as it is a renewable energy transaction in an Upper Middle Income Country. The DFI's value added is in particular the 18 years tenor which cannot be obtained in this quantum by commercial banks. Furthermore, adding generation capacity to the grid in a region where no other power plant are located contributes to the stability of the grid.
