Holding S.P.A.(“Akuo”) is the holding company of an 80 MW portfolio of solar PV assets in Chile, which is currently under
construction, 49% owned by Atlantica, with joint control since November 2022 and accounted for under the equity method in these
Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.Considering the delays in the execution of the project and construction costs overruns, the Company has identified an impairment triggering event of the investment made by the Company both
through equity and preferred equity (loan). As a result, an impairment test has been performed which resulted in the recording of an impairment loss of $11.4 million as of September 30, 2024. The impairment has been recorded within the line “Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges” of the consolidated condensed statement of profit or loss, decreasing
the amount of the investment carried under the equity method and the non-current receivables with Akuo (Note 12), for an amount of $5.3
million and $6.1 million, respectively.
The Colombian portfolio of renewable energy entities includes the following
entities: Atlantica – HIC Renovables S.A.S., SJ Renovables Sun 1 S.A.S. E.S, AC Renovables Sol 1 S.A.S. E.S, SJ Renovables Wind 1 S.A.S. E., PA Renovables Sol 1 S.A.S. E.S and Atlantica Hidro Colombia S.A.S. Atlantica holds 50% of the shares and has joint control over these entities in accordance with IFRS 11, Joint arrangements.
Windlectric Inc., the project entity, is 100% owned by Amherst Island Partnership, itself 30%
owned by Atlantica Yield Energy Solutions Canada Inc. (“AYES Canada”). As of September 30, 2024, AYES Canada is classified as held for sale in these Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Note 8).
Ecorer S.A.C. is the holding company of a portfolio of renewable energy projects in Peru, which are currently under development, 50% owned by Atlantica with joint control. The increase in the investment carried under the equity method results from the conversion to equity interests of a portion of the shareholder loan granted by
Atlantica in September 2024 (Note 12).
The decrease in
investments carried under the equity method as of
September 30, 2024 is primarily due to the impairment of the investment in Akuo indicated above and to the decrease in the investment in Vento II as a result of the distributions received from this asset by the Company for $17.9 million, partially offset by the share of profit in Vento II for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 for $4.7 million.
