Jeantet advises Ze Energy on the transfer of 49% of the share capital of the Vert Power Plant to Credit Agricole
Paris, 2 November 2026 – Jeantet advised ZE Energy on the transfer of 49% of the share capital of the Vert solar and storage power plant, located in the Landes region, to three regional banks of Credit Agricole and to Terra Energies.
The Vert power plant, inaugurated in October 2025, combines 77 MW of photovoltaic solar generation with 29.6 MWh of lithium-ion battery storage and supplies green electricity to Orange’s infrastructure under a 15-year power purchase agreement (CPPA). This transaction validates ZE Energy’s flexibility model, in which storage becomes a lever for enhancing the value of a photovoltaic asset and integrating it into the grid, as well as its ability to execute complex projects, backed by the confidence of a leading financial player. The proceeds will be reinvested in new projects, both in France and in other geographies, to accelerate ZE Energy’s development and its 2030 strategic plan.
ZE Energy is a European provider of electrical flexibility. Since 2020, the company has been developing, financing, building and operating standalone battery storage units and hybrid solutions (photovoltaic and battery projects). ZE Energy contributes to grid stability by enabling better integration of renewable generation. Active in France, Italy and Germany, ZE Energy is targeting 1.5 GW of capacity by 2030.
Jeantet’s team advising ZE Energy was led by Philippe Raybaud, partner, Thibault Willaume, counsel, and Aude Cassaigne, associate, on corporate/M&A matters. Alexae Fournier-de Faÿ, partner, and Lou Irié, associate, assisted on the financing aspects.
The investors were advised by JURICA (Vincent Berault).
