Italy's Enel buys wind farms in Germany in 80-million-euro deal

MILAN, ‌Dec 15 (Reuters) - Italy's largest ‍utility ‌Enel has completed the purchase ⁠of two ‌onshore wind farm projects in Germany, the company said ⁠on Monday, marking its first significant ​acquisition of renewable power ‌plants in ⁠the country.

The deal is worth around 80 million euros ($94 ​million) including debt, Enel said, adding that the acquisition would contribute approximately ​10 ‍million euros ​per year to its ordinary core earnings.

The wind plants, with a total installed capacity of 51 megawatts, are ⁠linked to a tariff scheme that ​ensures a minimum remuneration level for the electricity they produce, Enel said.
