Masdar’s investment in Spain

One of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy companies, Masdar’s acquisition of Valle Solar underscores its commitment to Spain’s energy transformation, while progressing its target of 100GW of global clean energy portfolio by 2030.

The announcement follows an agreement with Endesa SA on Tuesday to acquire a 49.99 percent stake in four solar plants in Spain, with a total capacity of 446 megawatts (MW).

Valle Solar reflects Masdar’s commitment to sustainability and social responsibility as it integrates initiatives supporting biodiversity and local communities. It is expected to become a best-in-class example of integration between local wildlife protection and renewable energy production.
