Canadian investor enters geothermal market with acquisition of Green Energy Iceland and Green Energy Geothermal

Energy Co-Invest Global Corp. (ECC Global) has acquired all key assets of Green Energy Geothermal (GEG), a leading provider of turn-key modular geothermal wellhead power plants.  ECC Global is consolidating GEG’s operations at new global headquarters in Reykjavik, Iceland, where GEG has maintained its core engineering and support teams since its founding in 2008.

GEG provides unique EPC solutions to geothermal projects globally. The company has deep experience in design, engineering, procurement, commissioning and operation of geothermal power plants.  Working closely with a consortium of international partners and suppliers, GEG offers world-leading Icelandic geothermal expertise and on-site know-how on a global scale.

With a fully commercialized technology, GEG has delivered fifteen modular geothermal wellhead plants with a combined capacity of 81 MW.  The company is currently engaged with the final stages of constructing a 5 MW turbine-generator in Iceland for Landsvirkjun, the Icelandic National Power Company.  A series of projects are underway in Asia, East Africa, the Caribbean and Latin America.

All GEG projects benefit from unparalleled speed-to-revenue, a core driver of the modular solution.  Together with financing from ECC Global, the packaged full suite offer to EPC customers and IPP partners will continue into new project types via strategic alliances with technical partners.

Jordan Oxley, CEO of ECC Global, noted that “Working with GEG over the past two years, we came to recognize the inherent benefits of their technologies and their approach.  The ability to mitigate the key financial and technical risks for geothermal developers and financiers is compelling.  Many share the view that it will become the next best practice for the industry.”  Oxley continued: “Together with their world class team located in the geothermal world capital, GEG is a most impressive company with an unlimited potential.  The opportunity to acquire the company and bring a partnered finance capacity is simply a rare and amazing entry to a high value industry.”
