Total SA will acquire EDP-Energias de Portugal SA's solar energy
portfolio of 2.5 million customers and two power plants for an
enterprise value of 515 million euros ($556.9 million), the company
said Monday.
The French energy company said the portfolio includes
business-to-consumer customers and two gas-fired combined cycle
power plants, worth nearly 850 megawatts of electricity
generation.
The transaction is part of Total's plan to achieve carbon
neutrality by 2050, the company said.
Following the acquisition, Total will capture 12% of the Spanish
residential gas market and 6% of Spain's residential power market,
the company said.
The deal will make Total the fourth largest supplier of gas and
power in Spain.
Energias de Portugal said it will continue to invest in Spanish
renewables, electricity networks and energy supply.
The deal is due for completion before the end of 2020.
