LONDON (ShareCast) - Suez Energy South America Participações (SESA) has made a £39.2m all cash offer for renewable energy producer Econergy International.
The offer is at 45p per share, which is 50% more than the 30p per share alternative offered by rival bidder Trading Emissions and 43.1% higher than the share offer.
SESA said it is also making available to Econergy loan facilities of over $50m.
“We consider Econergy to be a perfect fit and complementary to our international energy portfolio,” said Jan Flachet, officer of SESA and CEO of Suez Energy Latin America.
"Econergy has and is developing a series of interesting renewable assets, such as wind and small hydro, in markets where Suez Energy already has a presence or aspires to take positions," added Flachet.
