Macdonald Henderson has co-advised with global law firm Stephenson Harwood, on London-based private equity firm Rockpool Investment’s multi-million pound partnership with Realise Energy Services, the Perth-based onshore wind engineering firm.
The two companies have agreed that investment will result in a stronger proposition for turbine owners in the UK.
Rockpool’s investment was led by Simon Collins and Toby Hurdle.
Mr Collins said: “There is a huge opportunity in the market as owners look towards partnering with trusted specialists in inspection, monitoring and repowering – Realise is well positioned to capitalise on this.”
Realise chief executive Sheridan Jenkins said: “The investment from Rockpool marks another stage in our ambitious growth plans.
“We look forward to partnering with more turbine owners, and are now actively seeking further acquisition opportunities, aided by this investment.”
Since its inception in 2016, Realise has grown both organically and by acquisition, including the purchase of Wind Technik Nord UK and Optinergy NI.
Realise was advised by HNH for corporate finance, MacRoberts for legal, and Morris and Young Accountants for financial.
Rockpool was advised by Stephenson Harwood for (lead) corporate & banking and Macdonald Henderson for Scottish legal aspects.
