Bluesphere, a firm that manages waste-to-energy projects has announced its strategy to acquire fully operational waste-to-energy facilities in handpicked global markets. The Company has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire seven facilities in Italy.
According to the agreement, Bluesphere will purchase up to 100 percent of the seven anaerobic digestion facilities in Italy including the seller’s rights, title and interest.
The due diligence period is up to 60 days and all the seven facilities are currently being checked under the LOI for their long term agreements with local utilities for purchasing electricity from the plants.
