KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • ReNu Energy and RIWIF sign an Alliance Agreement to develop a $100m bioenergy portfolio.
  • The first project of the agreement is the sale of 70% of the Goulburn Bioenergy Project for $2.8m.
  • The second project is in the due diligence phase concerning the investment into ReNu’s AJ Bush Bioenergy Project.

ReNu Energy and Resonance Industrial Water Infrastructure Fund (RIWIF), an investment fund, signed an Alliance Agreement to develop a $100m bioenergy portfolio. ReNu energy is an independent power producer who provides customers with renewable energy across Australia and New Zealand.

The agreement has seen the investment for two projects. The first project will see RIWIF acquire 70% interest in ReNu’s Goulburn Bioenergy Project equating to $2.8m, with ReNu remaining the project operator. The ownership and management of the project will be governed by a shareholder’s agreement, which will also be the case for future alliance projects. The transaction is set to be complete in July 2018, awaiting a Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) approval.

Due diligence for the second Alliance Project, The AJ Bush Bioenergy Project and the investment in the AJ Bush ‘G4’ bioenergy expansion project is progressing with the finalisation of the investment decision and negotiations set to conclude in Q3 2018. The agreement sets the stage to develop and grow their portfolio of renewable bioenergy assets. The Alliance Agreement will allow RIWIF the first right of refusal over the next four years to take a 70% interest in the development of the next $100m of bioenergy projects in Australia and New Zealand.

Forget Startups: Why Magnetic Alliance is Betting on “Boring” Mid-Market Turnarounds

While Australia’s venture capital scene spent years chasing unprofitable tech startups and speculative high-growth plays, Mark Lim was quietly taking a radically different path. The Managing Partner of Magnetic Alliance Capital sees the nation’s richest investment opportunities hiding in plain sight: inside thousands of unglamorous, profitable, but operationally sluggish mid-market businesses. Speaking on Wholesale Investor’s […]

The asset class where the market has no vote

Litigation funding returns are decided in a courtroom, not a cycle. Knightsbridge’s Head of Capital is careful to call that a different risk rather than a lower one, and his answer to it is spread, not concentration. Most alternative assets still answer to something. Property answers to rates. Private credit answers to defaults. Even the […]

The listing fee vendors pay whether the house sells or not

Australia’s property portals collect more than $2 billion a year while national listings sit flat. An Australian-built AI platform is targeting the economics, not just the interface. An Australian vendor listing a home pays a vendor-paid advertising fee on top of agency commission. Rama Dwarapudi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RealSearch, puts a typical […]
