Boralex has announced the closing of its acquisition of a portfolio of wind power projects in Northern France totalling approximately 350MW.

With the Acquisition, Boralex gains access to a pipeline of projects, of which over 150MW may be commissioned in 2017 and 2018, coming from 79MW of ready-to-build projects and a pipeline of 159MW of projects at advanced stages of development. The ready-to-build projects will require investments of approximately €150 million and an equity contribution of approximately 20% of the investment being €30 million over the next two years. Boralex expects construction of the ready-to-build projects to get underway in June 2016 with around 35MW to be commissioned by the end of 2017 and the balance in 2018. This acquisition, together with the projects currently under internal development, will grow their French portfolio of development projects to nearly 850MW.
