Blackstone has agreed to invest in Eurowind Energy, a pan-European renewables developer and independent power producer, through funds managed by its infrastructure business. Headquartered in Hobro, Denmark, the company operates across onshore wind, solar, battery storage and biogas in sixteen markets.
The investment, valued at up to €2 billion, is intended to support the expansion of Eurowind’s renewable energy activities across Europe. Eurowind Energy was founded in 2006 by Jens Rasmussen, Søren Rasmussen and Jakob Kortbæk, and is jointly owned by Norlys. The company employs around 700 people across its operations. The transaction is expected to close before the end of the year, subject to customary conditions.
