GoldenPeaks Capital secures financing facility with funds managed by AB CarVal.

Warsaw, September 6, 2024 - GoldenPeaks Capital and AB CarVal, an established global credit fund and part of AllianceBernstein’s Private Alternatives business have signed a bespoke junior financing facility.

GoldenPeaks Capital, one of the fastest growing independent power producers in Eastern Europe, will use the funds to finance further acquisition and construction of Ready-to-Build solar photovoltaic assets in Poland.

The flexible HoldCo debt facility allows GoldenPeaks Capital to accelerate the buildout of its portfolio by bridging the financing needs to acquire projects and fund their construction equity before attracting senior project finance debt.

The facility has already paved the way for the acquisition of several solar PV projects across Poland with an aggregate capacity of more than 220 MW.

The financing is an important part of GoldenPeaks Capital’s plan to build more than 1 GW of solar capacity in Poland on an annual basis.

Daniel Tain, President of GoldenPeaks Capital says: “This transaction marks another significant milestone in our goal to further accelerate Poland’s path towards decarbonization.”

Jonathan Hunt, Managing Director of AB CarVal says: “We are delighted to work in partnership with GoldenPeaks Capital to support the global energy transition through our flexible financing solutions”
