Commenting on today's results, Rónán Murphy, Non-Executive Chairman of Greencoat Renewables, said:

The past six months have been a successful period for Greencoat Renewables, marked by a strong operational performance and continued expansion into Europe, including our first investment into the Nordic market.

The business continues to deliver enhanced value from the existing portfolio and I am pleased with the progress made across a number of strategic initiatives. These include a significant corporate PPA at attractive terms, evidencing the maturing market for contracted renewable power, and the construction of our first co-located battery project.

The overall outlook for the company remains positive, with good dividend cover, appropriate gearing, and the ability to pursue a strong near and medium term pipeline of opportunities in both Ireland and Europe.
