Emeren Group Closes 162 MW of 462 MW BESS Portfolio Under DSA with Arpinge in Italy

Emeren Group Ltd announced the closing of the second round of its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) portfolio under the Development Service Agreement (DSA) with Arpinge, a permanent capital vehicle focused on sustainable infrastructure in Italy.

This round includes two standalone BESS projects located in Sicily, Italy, with a total capacity of 162 MW or approximately 1.4 GWh.

With this addition, the portfolio now totals 462 MW, combining the newly announced 162 MW with the 300 MW tranche initially announced in November 2024. These projects collectively complete the portfolio under the DSA framework.

These projects are part of Emeren's DSA portfolio, a cornerstone of the Company's growth strategy. The DSA structure enables Emeren to monetize its development expertise through partnerships with top-tier investors. As of September 30, Emeren has secured DSA contracts with nine partners, encompassing 28 projects totaling over 2.1 GW—84 percent BESS and 16 percent PV.

These agreements are projected to generate contracted revenue exceeding USD 69 million within the next 2-3 years, with an additional 2.0 GW of projects currently under negotiation.

Yumin Liu, CEO of Emeren Group, commented, "These significant BESS projects in Sicily reflect the continued success of our partnership with Arpinge and the strength of our DSA model. This closing highlights our ability to capture high-value opportunities and reinforce our leadership in Italy's energy storage market. I commend our team for their exceptional work, which has enabled us to deliver on our strategic goals and further advance Italy's clean energy transition."
