Actis-backed Levanta Renewables to acquire 9.5MWp solar portfolio

by Kali Persall

Levanta Renewables, a Southeast Asia-focused renewable-energy developer backed by Actis, is acquiring a 9.5-megawatts-peak solar portfolio for its commercial and industrial business.

The portfolio consists of six solar projects across Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, with long-term power-purchase agreements signed with global 500 multinational corporations. The new projects are expected to generate more than 13 gigawatt-hours of clean power annually.

“We are excited to see Levanta’s growing assets in Southeast Asia across both utility-scale projects and C&I projects,” said Rahul Agrawal, head of energy for Southeast Asia at Actis. “At Actis, we understand the fundamental role renewable energy plays as corporates look to meet their net-zero targets and also in the process procure more affordable and cleaner energy. We are excited to continue to support this green energy transformation through Levanta as our renewable-energy arm.”
