Bluefield Solar buys ninth plant
Bluefield Solar Income Fund, a recently floated investment firm that buys and manages solar energy assets in the UK, yesterday said that it has agreed to acquire its ninth large-scale solar plant for £21m. Bluefield has around £14m available to spend on investments, so is proposing a share placing to raise a further £13m, some of which will be used to fund this latest acquisition. Numis Securities is acting as sole bookrunner on the placing.
