Schoenherr advised Enery on securing EUR 214.45m bank loan for Romanian renewable energy portfolio

The firm's services covered borrower-side legal advice in connection with this landmark financing deal, which will support the development and consolidation of Enery's renewable energy projects in Romania. The loan facility is strategically allocated to refinancing Enery's entire Romanian renewable energy portfolio, providing financial stability and operational efficiency, constructing a new 64.5 MW PV project and co-locating battery energy storage systems (BESS) in all operational and greenfield power plants to enhance grid stability and storage capabilities.

"We congratulate Enery and the lenders on achieving this innovative portfolio financing solution, which will support Enery's commitment to driving sustainable energy solutions in the region. In recent years, we have witnessed a surge in renewable energy project financing and acquisition financing in Romania, a segment where we are happy to have played an active role. This project marks a growing trend where borrowers and lenders work together in seeking creative, tailored bank lending structures for companies engaged in the energy transition," said Schoenherr partner Adina Damaschin, who led the team advising the borrower.
