Results of Issue and PrimaryBid Offer

The Board of The Renewables Infrastructure Group Limited, the FTSE 250 renewable infrastructure investment company with a diversified portfolio of energy investments across Europe, is pleased to announce the results of the Company's issue (by way of placing) under the Company's Share Issuance Programme (the Issue) and PrimaryBid Offer announced on 31 August 2021.

The Company will issue 161,290,323 New Ordinary Shares at 124 pence per share, raising gross proceeds of £200m in aggregate. The Issue was significantly oversubscribed and a scaling back exercise has taken place.

The purpose of the fund raise was to repay the Company's Revolving Credit Facility which, following the completion of the acquisition of the four solar sites in Iberia announced on 6 September, is expected to be approximately £200m drawn. As a result, the Board, in consultation with the Managers and Joint Bookrunners, has taken the decision to size the combined Issue and PrimaryBid Offer at this level. 

The Company will issue 159,833,478 New Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Issue and 1,456,845 New Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the PrimaryBid Offer.

Investec Bank plc and Liberum Capital Limited acted as Joint Bookrunners in relation to the Issue.

On behalf of the TRIG Board, Helen Mahy CBE, Chairman of TRIG, said:

"We are delighted with the strong support from existing Shareholders and new investors in this fundraising.  The proceeds of the Issue will be used in part to fund TRIG's first investment in Iberia, a landmark for TRIG, adding further to TRIG's geographic and technological diversification."

Total Voting Rights

On Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 2,264,699,253 Ordinary Shares with voting rights.
