By Dominic Chopping

 

Orsted said Tuesday it has agreed to sell 50% of the Gode Wind 3 offshore wind farm in Germany to funds managed by Glennmont Partners from Nuveen for 473 million euros ($499.6 million).

The Danish renewable-energy company said the deal comprises the 50% ownership share of the wind farm and a commitment to fund 50% of the construction of Gode Wind 3.

Gode Wind 3 is currently under construction alongside the Borkum Riffgrund 3 offshore wind farm, where Orsted and Glennmont are already 50/50 owners. In addition, Glennmont also co-owns Orsted's Gode Wind 1 offshore wind farm.

Gode Wind 3 is expected to enter commercial operation in 2024.

Fund manager Glennmont is focused exclusively on investments in clean energy infrastructure. It is owned by Nuveen, a Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association company.
