As per a statement, B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited, Minas Investments, and Green Synergy Consulting have acquired a 49% equity stake in Three Eight Six Holdings. The deal will enable the firm to leverage B.Grimm Power’s experience and capabilities to jointly develop solar energy projects in the GCC region.
“We want to be the front runner in renewable energy developments in the GCC to make a strongly positive and sustainable impact in the region. With our new partnership, we have a clear ambition to develop and operate 100MW of C&I solar projects by 2025,” said Ahmad Al Khayyat, Chairman of Three Eight Six Group.
“This marks the beginning of a cleaner and greener future for the Middle East, thereby finally putting it on the world map for energy transformation,” said Dr. Harald Link, President of B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited.
The investment by B.Grimm Power in the Three Eight Six Holdings is said to demonstrates how promising and attractive the renewable energy sector in the Middle East is.
