Thornton Bank - phase I Offshore Wind Farm

03 Feb 2021: C-Power has concluded the debt restructuring at its 325MW Thornton Bank offshore wind farm in the Belgian North Sea, advised by Green Giraffe. Senvion, its O&M service and original equipment manufacturer, filed for insolvency in 2019. Since then, the project has been operating and maintaining the farm on its own, combining both in-house expertise and outsourced capabilities from a pool of 20+ contractors. It is on that basis that the original lenders of the project have approved the restructuring, taking comfort in C-Power’s proven track record in successfully operating and maintaining the farm. Green Giraffe acted as sole financial advisor to C-Power and the sponsors on this transaction, having already assisted the project with its original financing in 2010 and its debt repricing in 2017.
