Solar Future Fund III (SFF) invests in Commercial & Industrial self-consumption and greenfield solar projects across Portugal and Spain, balancing near-term yield with long-term value creation. We focus on larger-scale C&I opportunities with multiple off-takers and institutional backing, while greenfield investments target solar (PV) plus Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects on strategically located sites with long-term land leases, strong grid access, and low curtailment risk.
