Iona Capital invested in Shawton Energy in 2021 and since then the company has grown significantly with a growing order book for larger solar projects under long-term PPAs.
Nick Ross, Director of Iona Capital said: “The partnership with Shawton Energy over the past two years has been a rewarding one for Iona Capital, generating positive returns for our clients. Rooftop solar remains an attractive sector for institutional investors particularly in meeting carbon reduction targets.”
