Switzerland-based Energy Infrastructure Partners AG (EIP), has increased its stake in BayWa r.e. from 49% to 65% with a €150 million (~$156.24 million) investment, becoming the majority shareholder. This change allowed BayWa r.e. to operate independently with a stronger financial structure. Since EIP’s initial investment in 2021, BayWa r.e.’s wind and solar capacity grew by over 50%, and its project pipeline more than doubled. The company secured continued support from its lenders and EIP’s banking network, ensuring financial stability until 2028. EIP planned to focus BayWa r.e. on core markets, renewable energy projects, and independent power production to improve efficiency and profitability. Advisory firm Ziems und Partner was engaged to support the transition. The transaction awaited regulatory approvals.
