Data compiled by TTR shows that Spain’s renewable energy sector experienced a 64% increase in 2021. The volume of M&A transactions in Spain’s energy sector grew steadily over the past four years, before declining sharply in 2022, according to data at the end of 3Q22, while the aggregate value remained relatively stable.
“M&A in the global renewables industry is at an important juncture in history: while a considerable acceleration is seen in 2021, there is still an atmosphere of some caution among investors in 2022 due to political and structural signals from the region’s major economies that directly affect the Iberian market,” states TTR’s report.
