Investments of around €150m will be needed for the ready-to-build projects, which will benefit from the regulatory rate, including the projects that are under advanced stage of development.
Boralex president and CEO Patrick Lemaire said: "With this transaction, our position as France’s leading independent producer will be strengthened while confirming the French market as the cornerstone of our growth in the coming years."
The deal will bring Boralex’s portfolio of development projects in France to around 850MW. Boralex currently operates 500MW of projects in the country.
This transaction will be completed upon receiving related documentation and is subject to customary conditions.
