TagEnergy, the global clean-energy enterprise backed by Impala SAS and Exor N.V., announces the acquisition of four onshore wind-farm assets in Scotland. These strategic additions underscore TagEnergy’s ongoing commitment to accelerating the UK’s energy transition and building a diversified, large-scale renewables platform.
Key Highlights
- The transaction secures 100 % equity in four Scottish wind farms, collectively adding ~ X MW of installed capacity (to be disclosed once transaction documentation is finalised).
- The acquired assets are operational (or near-operational) and located in strong wind resource areas, reinforcing TagEnergy’s UK renewables footprint.
- TagEnergy will assume full ownership and project-management responsibilities, leveraging its integrated development-to-operation model.
- The acquisition complements TagEnergy’s existing UK portfolio — which already includes battery-storage and wind/solar generation assets — and further advances the Group’s ambition to reach multi-gigawatt scale in the UK by the end of the decade.
Franck Woitiez, Chief Executive Officer of TagEnergy, said:
“We are delighted to add these four Scottish wind-farm assets to our portfolio. They reflect our strategic intent to be a leading player in large-scale, merchant-renewables across the UK. With an integrated model from development through to operations and trading, we are well-positioned to maximise value from these assets and support the UK’s energy transition.”
Strategic Rationale
Scotland remains one of the world’s most favourable environments for wind-power generation, thanks to high wind speeds, supportive infrastructure and the UK’s decarbonisation trajectory. By acquiring four established wind farms, TagEnergy capitalises on:
- Scale and immediacy – the assets allow immediate generation and revenue-stream capture, avoiding the long lead times of green-field development.
- Operational synergies – TagEnergy’s UK team brings experience in renewables asset-management, grid-integration and merchant energy trading, enabling optimisation of returns.
- Portfolio diversification – Alongside its battery-storage and solar interests, these wind assets balance TagEnergy’s generation mix and strengthen its position as a full-cycle renewables operator.
- Support for net-zero goals – The transaction aligns with the UK’s target of substantially increasing renewables-based electricity supply, and contributes to TagEnergy’s global mission of creating competitive clean power stations.
