This year, the company has started building more than 1 GW renewable energy projects in various markets.

EIG managing director Simon Hayden said: “EIG is delighted to provide this flexible form of construction financing to support European Energy’s global growth plans in renewables.”

In June this year, European Energy commenced construction on 49.5MW Anyksciai wind farm in Anyksciai, Lithuania.

The wind project will be the company’s first wind farm in Lithuania and will be equipped with nine 5.5MW turbines of GE Renewable Energy’s Cypress platform turbines.

The plant will be connected to the grid by the end of this year.

Once operational, the wind farm is expected to generate enough electricity to power approximately 50,000 homes in the region.
