Solar45 offers access to early-stage solar

Structured Solar Investing

Solar45 bridges the funding gap between land acquisition and Ready-to-Build (RTB) status.

We acquire early-stage solar projects at competitive valuations, secure permits and grid access, and exit once development is complete. At this point, project values typically double.

Our model avoids construction risk, focuses on de-risked development, and delivers fixed 15% p.a. target returns over a 3-year term. With asset-backed security and institutional demand at exit, Solar45 offers both clarity and confidence.

Europe’s Solar Powerhouse

Portugal aims to reach 20.4 GW of installed solar capacity by 2030.

Solar45 aligns with this national strategy by developing scalable, high-yield projects that support energy independence and ESG goals.
