Resalta finalizes sale of Slatina biomass cogeneration plant

Resalta will use funds from the sale of Slatina to explore and develop further projects in the field of renewables in the region. PEARL Infrastructure Capital is dedicated to energy and ecology transition, energy efficiency and circular economy and specializes in infrastructure assets in the environmental resource management sector (renewable energy based on renewable fuels biomass/RDF/waste, waste valorization and recycling, water and waste water cycle management) for industrial clients and municipalities in Europe.

The successful sale is a testament to Resalta’s operational excellence, as well as the viability of local projects. The Slatina cogeneration plant was fully designed and built by local teams, using Croatian suppliers and subcontractors. It was commissioned in  2019, with a long-term electricity offtake contract signed with HROTE, the Croatian power grid operator. The plant generates 40 GWh of electricity each year, enough to supply 500 homes with power, and provides heat to several local industries. It has created 15 new local jobs and continues to employ residents of Slatina. It was the first project opened in the municipality’s new industrial zone. The project was sold through Energy 9, the Resalta subsidiary that owned the powerplant in partnership with Iskraemeco.

A dynamic, fast-growing company, Resalta works with both public and private clients to finance, design and implement projects that champion decarbonization, reduce energy consumption, lower CO2 emissions
