European Energy has completed the sale of Trinity Hall Solar Farm, a 15 MWac solar energy project located in Bedfordshire, United Kingdom, to Elm Solar Holdings Limited, a company established for funds managed by Alpha Real Capital LLP. The transaction marks the latest step in European Energyโs strategy of developing, constructing, and operating renewable energy projects before transferring ownership to long-term investors while continuing to support their operation and management.
As part of the agreement, European Energy will remain involved with the project by providing Asset Management services for the solar farm. This approach allows the company to recycle capital into new renewable energy developments while ensuring that completed projects continue to operate efficiently under new ownership.
Commenting on the transaction, Jens-Peter Zink, Deputy CEO of European Energy, said that Trinity Hall Solar Farm represents the companyโs ability to manage renewable energy projects across the entire value chain, from initial development and permitting through construction and operation. He noted that with construction completed and the facility now generating electricity, the project is well-positioned to enter its next phase under its new owner.Located in Bedfordshire, the solar farm was energised earlier in 2026 after construction began in the second half of 2025.
The facility is expected to supply renewable electricity to the UK’s power system for many years, contributing to the country’s efforts to increase clean energy generation and reduce carbon emissions.The project also highlights the growing importance of solar energy in the United Kingdom’s renewable energy landscape.
A key feature of Trinity Hall Solar Farm is its corporate power purchase agreement (PPA), which provides a long-term arrangement for the sale of electricity generated by the facility. Such agreements have become increasingly important in supporting the development of new renewable energy projects by providing revenue certainty and reducing investment risks.
The sale further demonstrates strong investor confidence in operational renewable energy assets that offer contracted revenue streams. As renewable energy infrastructure continues to mature as an asset class, institutional investors are increasingly seeking opportunities that provide stable returns while supporting the global energy transition. Operational projects backed by long-term offtake agreements are particularly attractive due to their predictable cash flows and lower risk profile.
Alongside the development of the solar farm, European Energy maintained a focus on community engagement throughout the project lifecycle. The company worked closely with local stakeholders and residents during the development and construction phases to ensure that the project delivered benefits beyond clean energy generation.As part of this commitment, European Energy UK established the Trinity Hall Solar Farm Community Benefit Fund.
The initiative was created to support local organisations, charities, and community groups working to improve the well-being of residents in the areas surrounding the solar farm. Through the fund, eligible groups can apply for financial support for projects that create positive social and community outcomes.
The completion and sale of Trinity Hall Solar Farm further strengthens European Energyโs track record in developing, financing, constructing, and divesting renewable energy projects across Europe. The company continues to expand its presence in the United Kingdom, where rising demand for low-carbon electricity and ongoing decarbonisation efforts are driving investment in new renewable energy infrastructure.The project was financed by Nordea, while Burges Salmon served as legal adviser to European Energy during the transaction.
