Completion of Windy Rig and Glen Kyllachy Acquisitions and Long
Term Debt Facility
Greencoat UK Wind PLC ("the Company" or "UKW") is pleased to
announce that the commissioning of Windy Rig and Glen Kyllachy wind
farms and their subsequent acquisitions have been completed.
Windy Rig is a 43.2MW subsidy free project located near Castle
Douglas in Dumfries & Galloway and comprises 12 Vestas V112
3.6MW turbines.
Glen Kyllachy is a 48.5MW subsidy free project located in the
Highlands, 11 miles south of Inverness and comprises 20 Nordex N90
2.5MW turbines.
The addition of Windy Rig and Glen Kyllachy increases UKW's net
generating capacity to 1,422MW and the number of subsidy free
assets in UKW's portfolio to three from a total of 43 operating
wind farms.
The acquisitions were first announced in October 2019 and
December 2019 respectively and both projects have been funded
through reinvestment of excess cashflow and proceeds from the
Equity Raise in November 2021.
Additionally, UKW has entered into an agreement with AXA to
provide an 8-year GBP200 million debt facility which will be used
to repay the revolving credit facility. This will enable UKW to
continue to capitalise on the strong pipeline of opportunities in
the UK wind farm market, both onshore and offshore.
The Company is also pleased to share footage of a turbine climb
undertaken last year and referenced in the recent Capital Markets
Event.
