Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC – Masdar announced an agreement with Endesa S.A. to acquire a 49.99 percent stake in four solar plants in Spain, totaling 446 MW. The transaction, subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions, would involve a €184 million (~$198.23 million) investment by Masdar for assets with a total enterprise value of €368 million (~$396.37 million), reflecting a proportional purchase.
