Q: How do I invest with Solar45?

We offer three routes to participate: Limited Partnership, Secured Loan Note, or Investment Bond. Each is connected to the same project pipeline and return profile, allowing you to choose the structure that suits your risk appetite and investment goals.

Q: What makes Portugal attractive for solar investment?

Portugal offers over 3,000 hours of sunshine annually, fast-track permitting, and strong government support through the Acordo Scheme. These factors make it one of the most promising markets in Europe for solar development.

Q: How does the 3-year return work?

Solar45 targets a 45% total return over 3 years, with returns generated through early-stage project development and institutional exit at Ready-to-Build. Investors benefit from both yield and project uplift.

Solar45 acquires and de-risks early-stage solar investments in Portugal, exiting at Ready-to-Build to deliver structured returns.

Structured Solar Investing in Portugal

Solar45 bridges the funding gap between land acquisition and Ready-to-Build (RTB) status.

Portugal’s Acordo Scheme, combined with accelerating grid investment and over 3,000 hours of annual sunshine, has created one of Europe’s most defined development pipelines. Solar45 enters assets at the earliest viable stage, manages development risk through experienced origination, and exits at RTB — the point where value creation is greatest and buyer demand is highest.

Asset-Backed
Security

Direct exposure to early-stage solar and storage assets in Portugal, structured as limited-recourse investments secured against project value and exit proceeds.structured as limited-recourse investments secured against project value creation and exit proceeds.

Defined 3-Year
Timeline

A clear pathway from acquisition to Ready-to-Build exit, aligned with permitting milestones, grid connection cycles, and institutional sale timelines.

Fixed Return
Structure

A 45% fixed return over 3 years, linked to disciplined project development and exit at RTB stage. Predictable uplift with controlled capital deployment.

ESG-Aligned
Investment

Supporting renewable energy expansion and grid resilience in Portugal, aligned with EU decarbonisation targets and long-term energy transition objectives.

Understanding Solar45

How do I invest with Solar45?

Solar45 offers three routes: Limited Partnership, Secured Loan Note, or Investment Bond. Each provides exposure to the same project pipeline and 45% return target, with structures suited to different investor profiles and risk appetites.

You may also want to explore Santa Marta, the underlying land asset, or Baloiço, a related energy infrastructure strategy.

What makes Portugal attractive for solar investment?

Portugal combines over 3,000 hours of annual sunshine with fast-track permitting through the Acordo Scheme and strong government support for renewable energy. Grid infrastructure investment is accelerating following the April 2025 Iberian blackout, making development timelines more predictable and institutional demand stronger.

Our Santa Marta asset sits adjacent to the Tavira 400kV transmission node — one of the strongest grid connection points in the Algarve.

How does the 3-year return work?

Solar45 targets a 45% total return over 3 years. Returns are generated through early-stage project development — permitting, grid milestones, and asset progression — with value realised at institutional exit at Ready-to-Build stage.

The SantaMarta60 bond completed this same cycle in full, delivering 60% over 3 years and paid in December 2025.

Is energy storage part of the strategy?

Yes. Co-located battery storage is a core part of the Solar45 strategy, developed alongside solar projects to capture Iberian price volatility and enhance project-level returns. New Portuguese grid regulations have created a strong commercial case for integrated storage assets.

See Baloiço for a strategy focused specifically on integrated energy infrastructure.
