Invest in solar pv and generate clean electricity
As well as being very environmentally friendly, solar energy provides stable and predictable cash flows with relatively low volatility, thereby making it an attractive asset class for investors. The result: our global solar park portfolio has been growing continuously since 2009.
Our specialised expert team has excellent market knowledge and extensive investment experience in the solar pv sector. The investment team is supported by a dedicated asset management team. Our local presence allows our experts to actively manage our investment projects. Complementary to Aquila Capital's active asset management approach, the Merchant Market Desk pursues a similar strategy in developing market pricing strategies and structuring power purchase agreements (PPAs).
Individual mandate
In addition to investment opportunities in fund structures we also design tailor-made investment solutions in the form of individual mandates or specific investment strategies and their implementation.

Ninetynine Seconds - Joakim Johnsen on Power Purchase Agreements
In the last five years, Europe has seen significant growth in the use of PPAs for renewable energy. This is largely due to decreasing costs of renewable energy generation, phasing out of feed-in-tariffs as well as growing corporate demand for green energy. Although PPAs are used in several countries across Europe, the majority are concentrated in just a few, where subsidies are limited. However, demand is spreading across the region and several renewable energy projects are seeking PPAs in order to become realised.

Ninetynine seconds - Supporting wild bees on photovoltaic sites
Wild bees are central to our ecosystem and biodiversity. But they are threatened species and urgently need protection. Earlier this year, Aquila Capital started a project to colonise wild bees on its solar park land, because the habitat of wild platns and protective structures can help the bees thrive. Together with the University of Oldenburg, we are exploring the possibilities of a wild flower planting programme and providing additional nesting opportunities.
