With:
In April 2025, ValeCap acted as the exclusive financial advisor to EOS Investment Management Ltd (“EOS IM”) in relation to the acquisition of 100% of the quotas in Alta Capital 1 S.r.l., owner of a 130 MW photovoltaic project (“Project Aurelius”), from Alta Capital Limited (“Alta Capital”) (the “Transaction”).
The Transaction forms part of EOS IM’s expansion strategy, strengthening its position as a market leader in the renewable energy sector.
Project Aurelius is a ready-to-build photovoltaic plant holding a non-opposable Single Authorization, located in the Sicily region, one of the most irradiated areas in Italy. The project is fully eligible under Italy’s main renewable incentive schemes, including the FerX Decree and the Energy Release Decree.
EOS IM, with over €500 million in assets under management, is an independent asset manager active in infrastructure and private equity investments dedicated to energy and sustainable transitions. Its EOS ReNewable Infrastructure Fund II, a €300 million fund, is fully dedicated to clean energy infrastructure across Europe.
Alta Capital is a long-term player in the European photovoltaic sector, with a 2.4 GW development pipeline across Italy, the UK, the USA, and Australia. The group entered the Italian PV market in 2019 and currently manages a 1.4 GW PV portfolio under development and 0.9 GW of BESS projects in Italy.
This transaction reinforces EOS IM’s commitment to the Italian renewable energy market and confirms ValeCap’s role as a trusted advisor in large-scale solar transactions.
