The solar agreement
Masdar has signed an agreement to acquire and develop a solar photovoltaic project of more than 550 MW in Greece from Lightsource bp, according to its 24 October announcement. The transaction remains subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions.
The company expects the acquisition to complete by year-end and says the project is set to become operational by the end of 2026. Closing and commissioning are different milestones; neither should be reported as completed on the basis of this release.
Storage and digital infrastructure
Masdar plans to add battery storage to the project and says the transaction includes two privately owned substations connecting it to the transmission system. The announcement does not specify a storage capacity for this summary to use.
Separately, Masdar and Khazna Data Centers signed a memorandum to explore green data-centre development in Greece. The proposed collaboration joins clean-power and storage expertise with data-centre development capabilities. It is not confirmation that a new data centre has been built or supplied with electricity.
A development plan with conditions
The company links the investment to its TERNA ENERGY platform and wider European expansion. The relevant near-term checks are regulatory clearance, closing and project commissioning. The source’s expected benefits for energy security and digital growth remain the company’s stated rationale, not independently verified operating outcomes. No acquisition price is disclosed in the announcement.
