Global Atlantic Sells Stake in 26 Solar Facilities to APG

Global Atlantic Financial Group (“Global Atlantic”), a leading insurance company meeting the retirement and life insurance needs of individuals and institutions, has sold its 33% minority interest in a portfolio of 26 operating solar facilities and two energy storage facilities to APG, the largest pension provider in the Netherlands.

The projects in the portfolio represent approximately 2.2 gigawatts of operating solar and storage capacity across 6 states. The energy from these facilities is sold under long-term contracts with utilities across the country. Southern Power, through its subsidiaries, will remain as the general partner in the partnership and will maintain overall operational responsibilities for the projects.

“We are grateful to have partnered with Southern Power on this portfolio for the past 5 years and believe the buyer will be an excellent partner for these assets going forward,” Anup Agarwal, Chief Investment Officer of Global Atlantic, said. “Since 2015, we have deployed more than $7 billion across solar and other renewable infrastructure investments spanning early-stage developments to operational projects. This transaction will allow us to continue to support development and operational excellence of clean power solutions as global demand continues to rise.”

Onpeak Capital LLC served as exclusive financial advisor to Global Atlantic.

Steven Hason, Managing Director, Head of Americas Real Assets at APG, said: “Investing in renewable energy sources provides an opportunity to deliver responsible, long-term returns for APG’s pension fund clients. APG’s stake in these solar and storage assets furthers our commitment to the energy transition. We are pleased to have reached an agreement with Global Atlantic and look forward to a fruitful partnership with Southern Power.”
