Madrid, Spain; Abu Dhabi, UAE, March 24, 2025: Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC - Masdar, the UAE'ss clean energy leader, announced today an agreement with Endesa S.A. to acquire a 49.99 percent stake in four solar plants in Spain, with a total capacity of 446 megawatts (MW). The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions, would see Masdar invest EUR184 million for the stake in the assets, which have an enterprise value of EUR368 million.

These operating assets mark a significant milestone in Masdar's continued growth in the Iberian Peninsula and across Europe, and further its commitment to advancing the region's renewable energy ambitions. The proposed acquisition follows last year's agreement between Masdar and Endesa to partner in a portfolio of over 2GW of solar assets, with the potential to add 0.5GW of battery storage, in one of Spain's biggest renewable energy transactions in recent years.

Masdar's continued partnership with Endesa is expected to play a significant role in helping Spain meet its National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) targets. Last year, Masdar also acquired Saeta, an established renewables platform with an operating portfolio of 745MW of predominantly wind assets, and a 1.6GW development pipeline in Spain and Portugal. This latest transaction brings Masdar's total operational capacity in the Iberian Peninsula to 3.2GW.

Masdar is committed to supporting the EU reach its 2050 net-zero targets. Last month, Masdar and global energy leader Enel Group, to which Endesa belongs, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore potential renewable energy opportunities in countries including Italy, Spain, and Germany.
