, /PRNewswire/ -- Mainstream Renewable Power ("Mainstream"), the pureplay global wind and solar company majority-owned by Aker Horizons ASA, announced that it has sold its 675 MW portfolio of wind and solar assets under development in Colombia to Celsia, a local energy company, part of the Argos Group. The divestment marks Mainstream's exit from the Colombian market.
The assets, which Mainstream has been developing since 2019, comprise three solar projects and two wind projects; the 100 MW Andromeda solar farm, the 175 MW Aries solar farm, the 100 MW Pollux solar farm as well as the 150 MW Neptuno and 150 MW Sirius wind farms.
The transaction aligns with the company's updated and more focused strategy, concentrating on developing its pipeline of projects primarily in three core markets where it sees the greatest potential for value creation - South Africa, Australia, and the Philippines - and creating value through strong project execution, a lean cost base and capital efficiency, including capital recycling.
