Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised Energo-Pro, a company specialised in hydroelectric generation based in the Czech Republic, on the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of the companies Xallas Electricidad y Aleaciones (formerly Ferroatlántica) and Feroe Ventures & Investments owned by the global investment firm Sixth Street. To finance the transaction, Energo-Pro has secured a €300m bridge loan from J.P. Morgan and Goldman Sachs.

Xallas operates ten hydropower plants with a total capacity of 167 MW and two ferroalloy manufacturing plants. Faroe has applied for a concession for a hydro pumping project with a planned capacity of 400 MW. In 2022, the electricity production of the companies acquired by Energo-Pro was 386 GWh, recording revenues and EBITDA of €185m and €45m, respectively. With this transaction, the Czech firm expands its operations in Galicia, making it one of the largest investments made in Spain by a Czech company.

The GA_P team, led by Guillermo Guerra, partner of Corporate and Commercial, was formed by Irene Carreño, Jorge Martín and Carlota Mazzucheli, of the Corporate team, who were supported by Irene Fernández-Puyol, Carlos Vázquez and Cristina Matía, partners and lawyer of Public; Miguel Troncoso, partner of Competition Law; Ruth Ereño, associate of Litigation and Arbitration and the entire Due Diligence team.
