RES secures solar operations and maintenance contracts in the UK and Spain.


RES has secured new solar operations and maintenance contracts in the UK and Spain from The Renewables Infrastructure Group (TRIG).

The agreements consist of a five-year renewal for 11 solar PV sites in the UK, totaling 121MW.

RES has also obtained a new five-year contract for operating and maintaining four solar sites and a substation in Cadiz, Spain, adding another 234MW. Collectively, these sites produce enough clean energy to supply over 200,000 homes.

These agreements enhance a longstanding partnership between the two organizations and expand RES's services in Europe.

TRIG, a FTSE 250-listed investment company, aims to generate sustainable returns from a diverse portfolio of renewables. Since entering the Spanish market in 2021, its solar assets in Cadiz became a vital component, achieving operational status in 2023.

Juan Gutiérrez, Chief Executive of Services at RES, stated, “We’re proud to strengthen our partnership with TRIG, contributing to long-term, sustainable performance across its portfolio. Recent grid issues in Spain emphasize the increasing need for advanced O&M expertise and data-driven strategies to improve system resilience, minimize downtime, and prolong asset life. Well-maintained assets not only offer greater reliability and cost-efficiency but also enhance investor confidence and are essential for accelerating the energy transition.”

The new contracts allow TRIG to utilize RES's 24/7 control center and solar innovations like HelioLive and Optivert, which enable data-driven decisions to optimize the performance of solar assets.

Minesh Shah, TRIG's managing director, remarked, “RES has been a reliable partner from the outset, and its operational expertise continues to enhance our portfolio performance across Europe. We're pleased to extend this relationship as we prioritize reliable delivery and long-term value creation for our shareholders and stakeholders.”
