Livingstone acted as exclusive M&A advisor to the shareholders of the project company on the structured sale of the 50 MW battery storage project \u201cVOLTA\u201d in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to BW ESS.<\/strong><\/p>

Zelos Energy Developments GmbH<\/a> (\u201cZELOS\u201d) is a Berlin-based project developer specializing in the development of grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Germany. The company oversees the entire development cycle \u2013 from site acquisition through to ready-to-build stage \u2013 working closely with municipalities and local stakeholders.<\/p>

The project was acquired by BW ESS<\/a>, a Zurich-based subsidiary of BW Group, one of the world\u2019s leading maritime energy and infrastructure groups. The acquisition of VOLTA is part of a broader strategic partnership under which BW ESS and ZELOS are jointly developing a 1.5 GW BESS portfolio in Germany.<\/p>

Dr. Roland Schulz<\/strong> and Matti Schroeder<\/strong> of Livingstone Partners<\/strong>: \u201cThe successful sale of VOLTA highlights the strong investor appetite for battery storage in Germany, and we are pleased to have supported ZELOS on this landmark transaction.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
