 Voltalia, an international player in renewable energies listed on the Paris 
           stock exchange, will provide engineering, procurement and turnkey 
     construction (EPC) services followed by operation and maintenance (O&M) 
             services to Smartenergy, a Swiss-headquartered renewable energy 
 player/Edisun Power growing fast in Portugal, for three solar plants with a 
                                                   total capacity of 134 MW. 
 
  The plants will be located in the Lisbon - Margem Sul region. Construction 
of the first projects should start in the first half of 2020 and mobilize up 
  to 1,000 people on the sites and at Voltalia's offices. The plants will be 
equipped with high efficiency photovoltaic panels mounted on solar trackers. 
 
  Voltalia's scope of services includes construction of the power generation 
 projects and their transmission facilities (substation and evacuation line) 
  as well as the operation and maintenance of the facilities for a period of 
at least 10 years. The contract will have a total value of around 80 million 
                                               euros (EPC and O&M services). 
 
       Voltalia is strengthening its leading position as service provider in 
    Portugal with more than 350 MW of solar projects built and operated. The 
    company can rely on its Global Solar Hub established in Portugal, active 
 locally and internationally and on a team of almost 200 people in Porto and 
         Oliveira de Frades, including experts in the fields of engineering, 
            purchasing, construction, production management, maintenance and 
                                                              distribution . 
 
 Horst Mahmoudi, CEO of Smartenergy says, "The construction and operation of 
     a large volume of projects in Portugal is one of our key challenges for 
  2020. The quality of the Voltalia teams, the solidity of its balance sheet 
   and the ability to offer integrated construction and maintenance services 
                                   were key factors for selecting Voltalia". 
 
    Sébastien Clerc, CEO of Voltalia explains: "In recent years, our team in 
Portugal have been mostly mobilized internationally. Great opportunities for 
   Services provision have also appeared recently in the domestic Portuguese 
   market and we are happy to support our new partner Smartenergy locally in 
                                                 carrying out its projects".
