Patria Investments and Ashmore Colombia have agreed to sell a 100% interest in the Puerta de Oro solar plant to Isagen in an all-cash transaction. The price was not disclosed, and the deal remains subject to relevant regulatory approvals. Located in Colombia’s Cundinamarca department, the 360 MWp operating plant comprises more than 511,000 modules across about 530 hectares, is expected to generate roughly 728 GWh annually and entered commercial operation in July 2026. The transaction transfers ownership of an operating asset rather than adding new commissioned capacity, while Isagen said the acquisition supports its goal of adding another 1,000 MW of solar capacity in the coming years.

[SMM PV Flash] PowerChina Commissions Integrated PV, CSP and Molten Salt Storage Project

PowerChina has completed grid connection of an integrated solar PV and concentrated solar power project in Gonghe, Qinghai province. The project combines photovoltaic generation, tower-based CSP, molten salt thermal storage and power-to-heat technology within a single system. The CSP section includes eight hours of molten salt storage, while electric heaters can convert surplus PV electricity into thermal energy for storage. The stored heat can later be used to generate electricity during evening peak demand or periods of low solar irradiation, improving dispatchability and reducing solar curtailment. The project demonstrates a hybrid approach that combines PV generation with thermal storage to provide longer-duration energy shifting and greater flexibility in high-renewable power systems.

[SMM PV Flash] Axian Energy and Africa GreenCo Sign Solar PPA in Zambia

Pan-African renewable energy developer Axian Energy has signed a solar power purchase agreement with energy aggregator and electricity trader Africa GreenCo for the Kudu solar project in Zambia. The project has also secured financial support from Standard Bank and Stanbic Bank Zambia and is progressing toward financial close and construction. Africa GreenCo operates a regional power aggregation and trading model that can reduce exposure to a single off-taker by selling electricity across multiple markets. The agreement reflects the growing role of aggregator-based PPA structures in supporting the financing and development of utility-scale solar projects across African power markets.
