BayWa r.e. sells 14.2 MWp solar portfolio in Italy to NetOn Power

BayWa r.e. executed a capital recycling strategy with the March 9, 2026, divestment of a 14.2 MWp operational solar portfolio in Italy to NetOn Power. This transaction, involving four operational projects, enables BayWa r.e., active in solar, wind, and energy storage development, to reallocate funds towards new construction or its extensive development pipeline. The undisclosed value deal transfers established revenue-generating assets from a developer-seller to a buyer with a distinct core business. For NetOn Power, this acquisition provides immediate operational capacity in the Italian solar market, establishing a new direction from its primary focus as a Chinese manufacturer of power supply products. Acquiring these ready-to-build/operating assets offers NetOn Power a direct entry into renewable energy asset ownership, bypassing the often-lengthy development phase. NetOn Power, primarily known as a Shenzhen-based manufacturer specializing in power supply products, is entering the operational renewable energy asset space with this Italian acquisition. This purchase of 14.2 MWp of solar capacity diversifies NetOn Power's portfolio beyond its core research, development, production, and sales of power supply products. For BayWa r.e., a leading global renewable energy developer and service provider, this divestment aligns with its strategy to develop and construct projects, then monetize mature assets to fuel further growth across its solar, wind, and energy storage activities. The transaction on March 9, 2026, sees BayWa r.e. optimizing its asset base by selling operational projects in Italy. This deal illustrates how industrial players are increasingly integrating renewable energy assets into their operational or investment strategies.
