Anesco nabs O&M contracts for 71 MW of UK solar farms

• UK renewables developer Anesco Ltd has secured 10 contracts to provide operation and maintenance (O&M) services for 71 MW of solar farms in its home country.

The firm said Tuesday its O&M team will take care of six solar farms owned by Foresight Group, building upon an existing contract with the London-based private equity firm. Anesco already provides technical and commercial asset management for Foresight’s 18 solar farms in the UK.

The remaining four sites belong to UK investor Alpha Real Renewables, also an old client of Anesco. The new contracts have expanded their relationship to a total of 81 MW of maintained capacity.

Anesco’s O&M team oversees the performance of over 22,000 assets, including the newly-added solar farms. The UK firm said new contracts would bring it closer to its target of 1 GW of UK solar and storage assets under management.
