José Luis Martínez Dalmau, President and CEO of Saeta Yield, answers questions on some of the main matters of interest to the Group.
What is Saeta Yield and how does it create value for its shareholders?
Saeta Yield is a company that operates energy infrastructure assets, mainly related to renewable electricity generation. Its vocation is to provide value to its shareholders by investing in assets that generate highly stable and predictable cash flows, supported by income that is regulated or contracted in the long term. Saeta Yield offers a full return to shareholders in the form of high and growing dividends.
Saeta Yield is the first energy asset Yieldco listed in euros. So far, it operates solar thermal and wind power assets in Spain. Its aim is to maintain solid and sustained growth in dividends through the acquisition of new assets.
The Group enjoys a privileged relationship with ACS Group and Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), who act as sponsors with shareholdings in Saeta Yield and who offer new energy assets developed mainly by its subsidiary Bow Power.
How is Saeta Yield different from other Yieldco?
In addition to the fact that it is the only European Yieldco to be listed in Euros, Saeta Yield has a solid governance structure with an independent management team and extensive experience in the sector; its Board of Directors has an independent majority and the company has decision making protocols to avoid conflicts of interest in this process.
Furthermore, at Saeta Yield the sponsor has neither rights nor remuneration different to those of the rest of the Group’s shareholders.
The sustainability of Saeta Yield’s business model is also given a boost by a solid financial structure and high levels of liquidity, which will allow it to achieve its growth targets. Financial discipline is key when it comes to acquiring assets, and certain investment criteria are always applied, aimed at maximising the rate of return, minimising risks and ensuring that acquired assets generate stable cash flows.
How would you appraise the results of 2015 and the first months of 2016?
2015’s results were very satisfactory, particularly taking into account the fact that they were the first
that we presented as an independent listed company. I would like to place great emphasis on the fact that the entire process of floating on the stock exchange and creating our current solid organisational structure has represented a significant milestone. Saeta Yield is the first energy Yieldco in Europe, and this has posed major challenges in strategic terms, as it is a common and well- known model in America, but most of our shareholders are European.
In operational terms, I would like to highlight the fact that our results in 2015 are very satisfactory, both in terms of gross operating profit and cash flow for shareholders, and have exceeded the expectations of the market and the Group. This has been a major endorsement of our ability to meet our investors’ needs in this sector. 2016 has begun with an electricity market price below the regulatory expected price, which will impact our market revenues. This is a transitory situation as the regulation compensates the long term exposure to price volatility.
In addition, I would like to place emphasis on other three milestones that have been achieved. Firstly, we have successfully completed funding of Serrezuela Solar, one of our Solar Thermal plants, which was unlevered;
this funding operation contributes 185 million euros of liquidity to the Group’s growth.
1. Interview with
the President and CEO
This is the first year that we are presenting Saeta Yield’s Integrated
Report. With this document we seek to provide details about the
Group’s characteristics, a long-term view of our strategy and how
we create value for our stakeholders, a key aspect for the Group’s
long-term sustainability and its capacity for future growth.
Specifically, with part of these funds, right at the start of the 2016 financial year we have acquired two more solar thermal assets, Extresol 2 and Extresol 3, each with 49.9 MW, forming part of the agreement with Bow Power for our asset acquisition strategy.
I would like to emphasise that this operation has been carried out in accordance with Saeta Yield’s investment criteria, prioritising the creation of value in terms of shareholder return, and cash generation capacity.
Similarly, it has also been carried out in line with the rigorous investment process set out by our Corporate Governance, which seeks to respect the interests of all our shareholders, particularly when it comes to these decisive strategic operations.
Thirdly, I would like to highlight the fact that, thanks to this first successful acquisition, the Board of Directors has approved a dividend increase of 7.7% per share, representing the confirmation of our commitment to our shareholders to continue to increase the dividends paid per share, as we acquire new assets, placing Saeta Yield among the companies with the highest dividend profitability on the Spanish stock market.
What are Saeta Yield’s medium and long term objectives?
The Group’s strategic lines for the coming years include achieving high total profitability for our shareholders.
To do this, we first propose to efficiently operate all assets to extract maximum profitability from them. Saeta Yield holds a very solid portfolio of renewable energy generation assets, with very high efficiency thanks to
operating processes including the best professionals, extensive and long-term operating and maintenance agreements, exhaustive health and safety protocols, as well as a full commitment to environmental
friendliness. The sustainability, visibility and recurrence of cash flows is decisive for our business success.
In addition, we must grow in a sustained and controlled manner through the acquisition of new energy assets, both from our Sponsors, Bow Power, ACS and GIP, as well as from third parties. For this purpose, we must continue to make progress in the acquisition of new assets for which we have right of first offer agreements, while Bow Power continues to develop new opportunities for the future. Similarly and in parallel, we must carry out exhaustive market intelligence to allow us to decide to acquire third party assets, mainly in Europe and Latin American countries with stable regulatory frameworks and revenue in strong currencies.
During all of these investment processes, we must apply investment criteria that prioritise safety, the creation of value and the cash generation capacity of the acquired assets. Growth is important, but we cannot realise it without appropriate discipline. The first of these aforementioned acquisitions that we have made, is an example that illustrates our efforts to ensure that our growth is profitable and creates long term value.
In order to continue with this investment plan, we’ve set ourselves the strategic target of maintaining a solid financial position, which guarantees sustainable cash flows of the current portfolio.
To secure this solidity and stability of the Group, it is our proposal to continue defining and developing organisational mechanisms that allow us to bring stability to the Group, reduce risks and further cement our Corporate Governance. A milestone that I would like to highlight from 2015 is the achievement of all of our targets in terms of internal policies and procedures, from among which I would emphasise our Risk Management Policy, an aspect that I consider key in a company like Saeta Yield, that seeks to be an attractive long term investment.
Last, but by no means least, we have set the strategic target of developing an organisational structure that prioritises talent and teamwork, drawing from the best professionals across all areas of the Group. An independent, expert, autonomous and effective team with excellent knowledge of how to manage our assets. With key values such as integrity and business ethics, and that allows us to become an international benchmark while carrying out our activity, contributing to social welfare and sustainable development.
1. Interview with
the President and CEO
Without a doubt, this first
year has been both a challenge
and an enormously satisfying
experience, from both a personal
and professional perspective.
How does Saeta Yield generate value for the rest of the society?
Saeta Yield is a company that includes
sustainability among its values. This is something that is absolutely key for us, as by definition the activity that we carry out is a sustainable alternative to the traditional energy generation model, and we do this with respect for our environmental and social surroundings.
Our positive environmental impact is decisive.
During 2015, thanks to the renewable component of our electricity generation, we actively avoided the emission of 940,899 tonnes of CO2 in net terms, assuming an emissions factor of 0.688 tonnes per MWh produced. This figure places us among the electricity companies with the lowest emissions intensity in Europe. Our commitment involves making a decisive contribution to the process to transform the energy model, both in Spain as well as in other countries where we will carry out our activity in the future.
We know that the best way to achieve our strategic objectives is through sustainable policies that seek to reduce environmental, social and reputational risk, and to reinforce our positive impact. These benefits are a fact in the districts where we have a presence. Thanks to our contributing by paying taxes, wages, local contributions and the previously mentioned positive environmental impact, I believe that we are on the right path to continue being a positive player to the benefit of our society.
In short, what are your thoughts on Saeta Yield’s first year of operations?
Without a doubt, this first year has been both a challenge and an enormously satisfying experience, from both a personal and professional perspective.
We have achieved our main operational, financial and strategic objectives. Over these months we have created from nothing an efficient and solid structure and a talented and committed team; we have defined our own corporate culture aimed at excellence, value creation, reliability and a clear commitment to the Group’s values.
I consider what we have built up at Saeta Yield during these first few months of operation to be a success, and I am sure that, with the foundations that we have constructed over recent months, we will continue our strategic plan’s development, achieve our main targets and expand our activities, always with a commitment to profitability and sustainability in the development of our corporate project.
1. Interview with
the President and CEO
Similarly, it includes the recommendations set out in European Union Directive 2014/95/EU on non-financial reporting. As part of its commitment to transparency and leadership, Saeta Yield is one of the pioneering companies in the application of these recommendations.

3.1. Description of the organisation
Saeta Yield S.A. is a company that operates energy assets, currently 100% renewable generation assets. Its vocation is to provide value to its shareholders by investing in assets that generate highly stable and predictable cash flows, supported by income that is regulated or contracted in the long term, offering a total return to shareholders, combining profitability through high dividends and a growth in dividends per share.
Saeta Yield is the first energy asset Yieldco listed in euros.
So far, it has been operating solar thermal and wind power assets, and its aim is to maintain solid growth in dividends through the acquisition of new assets.
Saeta Yield has two main partners: the construction and services group ACS, and the Global Infrastructure Partners infrastructure fund. As well as being the Company’s main shareholders, they have formed a company for the development of new energy infrastructure, known as Bow Power.
Saeta Yield maintains a Right of First Offer2 (RoFO) agreement with both Bow Power and ACS Industrial for developed assets, as well as a Call Option3 for the Manchasol 1 generation facility owned by Bow Power.
This growth is driven by global trends that shape the current and future energy market, which lead to policies and regulatory frameworks giving an incentive for new energy infrastructure (mainly renewables) and, consequently, the appearance of new opportunities for our Group.
3. The Group
2 Through the Right Of First Offer Agreement, Saeta receives a right to make a first offer to, if successful, acquire certain assets established in the contract prior to 31 December 2017, as well as any first offer on any energy assets developed by Bow Power and or ACS Industrial and to be sold,, during an initial period of five years that may be extended if certain milestones are reached. This right does not mean a firm purchase commitment by Saeta Yield, but a right to receive the first offer on any energy assets to be sold by those companies. If there is no agreement on the conditions, ACS Industrial / Bow Power may not sell the asset to third parties at a lower price than that offered to Saeta Yield.
3 The call option is held over three solar thermal generation assets in commercial operation, of which Saeta Yield has already acquired 2 during the first quarter of 2016.

Saeta, a successful Yieldco
Yieldcos are companies that aim to pay periodic and increasing dividends. They tend to be created by a parent company (known as a sponsor) which, as well as creating a primary vehicle with assets capable of generating stable and predictable cash flows, provides preferential access to new assets to be developed in the future. It is an innovative and continuously growing model that can be attractive for investors seeking low risk returns and growth forecasts for dividends per share.
Saeta Yield has a series of unique aspects, making it one of the best investment options in its sector.
The Group analyses market evolution
continuously. It also constantly communicates with shareholders, analysts and investors with the aim of reacting to their concerns.
This allows to maintain a flexible position and to respond as well as possible to any uncertainties that may arise.
Saeta Yield has a solid governance structure with an independent management team and experience in the sector, and has no occupational relationships with its main shareholders; its Board of Directors has an independent majority and the company has protocols in place to avoid conflicts of interest and to promote decision making independence and autonomy from the sponsor. Saeta Yield also has all necessary resources and is not financially dependent on its shareholders.
The sustainability of Saeta Yield’s business model is also given a boost by a solid financial structure, which allows it to achieve its growth targets.
Financial discipline is key when it comes to appraising and acquiring new assets, and certain investment criteria are always applied, aimed at maximising the rate of return while minimising risks and ensuring that stable cash flows are generated.

3.1.2. Group Activity
Saeta Yield acquires and operates energy
infrastructure assets. The Group currently possesses 21 renewable generation projects, with a total of 789 MW4, distributed among wind and solar thermal assets. All of the Group’s assets are in Spain, under the remuneration model defined by Spanish regulations.
The asset operation activity is supplemented by the search for new acquisition opportunities, thereby favouring sustained growth of dividends.
Saeta Yield has two fundamental partners: ACS Group and Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP).
Together, to develop projects to be offered to Saeta Yield, have formed Bow Power, a joint venture dedicated to the development of greenfield projects, with whom Saeta Yield maintains a Right of First Offer (RoFO) agreement and a Call Option on the Manchasol 1 solar thermal plant.
Under this agreement, Saeta Yield has a preferential acquisition position over all existing and future energy assets, without geographical limitations, that ACS Servicios Industriales, either individually or jointly with GIP through Bow Power may develop and intend to sell.
This creates a virtuous circle between Saeta Yield and Bow Power for the development, construction and operation of energy assets. The agreement allows risk and the cost of capital to be effectively assigned between the different activities on the value chain. Therefore, Bow Power focuses on its core business, namely the development and construction of assets, guaranteeing faster turnover and improving their profitability and competitiveness. Similarly, Saeta Yield has preferential access to new high quality operational assets, which generate stable cash flows, without having to assume construction and development risks, at a competitive cost of capital.
Furthermore, Saeta Yield outsources the operation and maintenance of its assets to third parties through long-term full-service contracts. The Group’s assets are currently operated by Cobra Group, subsidiary of the ACS Group, with excellent performance and competitive operating costs. The contracted coverage includes the replacement and maintenance investments associated with the plants, reducing the risk of cost overruns associated with operations.
Not only does Saeta Yield benefit from agreements signed with ACS and GIP, but also enjoys their support as main shareholders of the Group.
3. The Group
4 In 2015, its installed power was 689 MW. Two solar thermal assets were acquired on
22 March 2016, adding 100MW to achieve the current 789 MW.
Bow Power is a company created by the ACS Group and GIP for the development of renewable assets, with the aim of offering them to Saeta Yield once they are in operation and generating stable cash flows.
The ACS Group is the largest international construction company. Among its many activities is the development and construction of energy assets.
ACS Group contributes energy asset development experience to Bow Power and Saeta Yield (over 10 GW of generation facilities and 10,200 km of transmission lines constructed), with a presence on all continents and a strong financial position.
Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) is a leading global fund management company, dedicated to infrastructure investment.
GIP contributes its industry experience to Bow Power and Saeta Yield, with management practices aimed at obtaining high levels of risk adjusted profitability, by redoubling its financial strength.
Cobra Group is the main company in ACS Group’s industrial division. With extensive experience along the entire value chain, it is dedicated to the promotion, development and construction, as well as the operation and maintenance of energy assets.

3.2. Our assets
Saeta Yield has a portfolio of generation assets with an installed capacity of 789 MW, all in Spain, distributed across 16 wind farms with a total of 539 MW and five solar thermal plants, accounting for 250 MW. These are operational plants, with the best technology and that generate stable cash flows under Spanish regulations that support renewable energies. All Group assets are at the optimal moment of their useful lives.
Assets have the majority of their operational lives ahead of them, while having enough track record to demonstrate high performance.
As of 2015, the 16 wind farms were 5 years old on average, meaning that they have a remaining useful life of at least 20 years. During 15 out of the 20 years, the plants will operate with a regulated remuneration scheme, and it expected that they will operate for at least an additional 5 years only with market revenue.
Energy generated by wind assets in 2015 totalled 946 GWh, with an average availability of 98.3%.
Solar thermal plants were 4 years old on average, with a remaining useful life of 21 additional years, all under a regulated revenue scheme. These solar thermal plants produced 421 GWh, with an average yield ratio6 of 113%.
During their useful regulatory life, all of Saeta Yield’s assets will earn a fixed return on investment linked to installed power. In addition, solar thermal power plants are remunerated for their operation: the remuneration they receive depends on the energy they produce. These two regulated remuneration components are added to each facility’s earnings for selling energy at market prices.
3. The Group
5 This does not include the Extresol 2 and Extresol 3 assets acquired at the beginning of 2016.
6 The performance ratio (PRC) values the plant’s operation based on meteorological conditions entered into the simulation model provided by the construction company after launching.
7 Graph data have been calculated according to estimated emission factors based on the 2015 Report on the Spanish Electricity System, published by Red Eléctrica Española (System production 254,473 GWh, total emissions 73,300.00 tCO2). The intensity of Saeta Yield’s emissions has been calculated by considering the only emissions as being those produced by burning natural gas in its solar thermal assets.
Environmental performance
Through its operations, Saeta Yield contributes to protecting the environment and to the fight against climate change. The renewable nature of its assets brings about a series of positive impacts on the environment, including a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Wind generation is emissions free, whereas a small quantity of emissions is associated with solar thermal generation, as it is necessary to burn natural gas to prevent the thermal fluid from solidifying when solar radiation levels are low. In net terms, in 2015 Saeta Yield avoided the emission of 940,899 tonnes of CO2, (949,279 gross tonnes), thanks to its low emissions factor, which stood at 6.13 kgCO2/MWh, a figure that places it among the electricity companies with lowest emissions intensities in Spain7 and Europe.

3. The Group
Added value in the environment
Saeta Yield promotes the economic and social development of the places where it operates, so it assesses the impacts of its activity on its surroundings. The Group’s assets are located in secure environments where there is no risk of human rights violations, so their protection is guaranteed.
By signing agreements with governments, Saeta Yield contributes to creating direct and indirect jobs in the local areas around its assets.
Approximately 50% of workers at generation facilities are locals. Similarly, it prioritises the hiring of local suppliers, whenever they have the necessary capabilities to perform the job.
Because of this, thanks to the distribution of value generated through taxes, salaries and local contributions, Saeta Yield has become a positive and beneficial player in the generally rural surroundings where it operates, and where it is difficult to generate sustainable economic activity.

Bow Power and Saeta Yield form a virtuous circle in which both obtain benefits:
Saeta Yield accesses mature, high quality assets without assuming development and construction risks.
Bow Power turns its assets over at the optimal moment, funding new projects with funds received from Saeta Yield.
Production is sold under long-term regulated or contracted prices (PPA), allowing stable cash flows to be estimated and maintained:
Regulated prices: incentives, price fixing, reasonable profitability.
Power Purchase Agreements (PPA): fixed prices, contracted in the long term with another party.
Operation and maintenance of Saeta Yield assets is subcontracted through a full long term contract that gives incentives for excellent operation and maintenance, with remuneration based on performance and production.

The 3 from 2015 and the first from 206 correspond to the year 2015 and total 61 euro cents per share, which in prorated terms, based on the number of days that Saeta Yield has been listed, meets the dividend distribution commitment adopted by the Group upon floating on the stock exchange (€57 M / 70 cents per share for a full year).
22 March 2016
Acquisition of the solar thermal plants included in the ROFO, Extresol 2 and Extresol 3 from Bow Power for €119 M.
Approval of a 7.7% dividend increase to €61.4 M per year.
2015 has been a particularly important year for Saeta Yield. In addition to its listing on the stock exchange and the creation of the organisational structure, during the year the company has achieved the following milestones:
• Operating results above market expectations.
• The funding of Serrezuela Solar, essential for consolidating the Group’s growth strategy.
• The payment of dividends as promised to the market.
• The acquisition of Extresol 2 and Extresol 3, the first two RoFO assets acquired from Bow Power, which have allowed an increase in dividend objectives and to confirm Saeta Yield’s growth strategy.
3.5.1. Operating Results
Electricity production of the portfolio as a whole reached 1,367 GWh, representing a 9.8% drop compared to the previous financial year, due to the fact that there was less wind in 2015 than in 2014. The assets have had exceptional operations during this financial year, achieving high levels of availability and efficiency.
In 2015, the Group obtained operating income of 220.6 million euros, with wind energy assets contributing 46% and solar thermal assets 54%.
This value represented a 2% increase from the operating result in 2014, mainly due to the effect of the increase in the price of electricity (which reached €50.3 per MWh compared to €42 MWh during the previous year), which has compensated for the drop in production.
EBITDA reached 156 million euros, 2% higher than the previous year. The Group’s diversified portfolio favours stable production and income, which is reflected in a solid EBITDA. This figure is 2 million euros higher than expected by the market, thanks to income growth and cost reduction.
Net profit in 2015 reached 16 million euros. Excluding the negative financial results due to the restructuring of derivatives carried out as part of the initial public offering operations in February of that year, the comparable net results would have totalled 26 million euros, which would have represented growth of 42%
compared to 2014.
Cash available for distribution (CAFD) amounted to 128 million euros, of which 54 correspond to extraordinary operations that took place due to the public offering14, and 74 million euros correspond to ordinary operations of the Group’s operating assets.
This figure is 2 million euros higher than that expected by the market, and 12 million euros higher than the recurring CAFD figure for 2015, which stood at 62 million euros.
Out of this CAFD total, Saeta Yield distributed a total of 35 million euros in dividends to its shareholders.
In annual terms, this amount meets the Group’s commitments acquired during the public offering process, which determined the distribution of 57 million euros of dividends per year. Taking into account that an additional 14 million euros, corresponding to 2015, were distributed in March 2016, the total figure amounts to 49 million euros, in proportion to the number of days that the Group has been publicly listed.
3. The Group
14 Specifically, the capital increase (+€200 M), liquidation and writing-off of inter-group accounts to December 2014 (net balance of +€51 M), the early amortisation of debt (-€141 M) and the restructuring of interest rate hedging derivatives associated with the debt (-€56M).
EBITDA reached 156 million euros, 2% higher than the previous year.
This figure is 2 million euros higher
than expected by the market.
3.5.2. Evolution of the debt and liquidity
In 2015, Saeta Yield’s net debt saw a reduction of 28% when compared with that seen in December 2014. This decrease is due to capitalisation operations that occurred at the same time as the public sale offer15. The ratio of net financial debt/EBITDA at the close of 2015 was 4.6x.
Gross debt stood at 907 billion euros in 2015, 18% lower than in 2014. All of Saeta Yield’s gross debt corresponds to bank loans through project finance schemes without resort to the parent company. The average life of the debt is
less than 13 years. 75% of outstanding debt is hedged from interest rate fluctuations through derivative contracts (Interest Rate Swaps). Lastly, the average cost of debt decreased from 4.9% at the end of 2014 to 4.0% at the end of 2015.
On 22 December, 2015, the Group signed a project finance contract for Serrezuela Solar, for a total of 185 million euros. This funding comprises two parts, the first of 135 million euros at a variable rate, with a syndicate of four financial entities, and a second part of 50 million euros at a fixed rate, with the European Investment Bank. Both parts of this funding mature on 30 December, 2031.
Short-term liquidity at the end of the financial year stood at 394 million euros considering the funding agreed for Serrezuela Solar II, other short-term deposits available in the first half of 2016, as well as the revolving credit line, both unavailable on the aforementioned date.

Following the acquisition of Extresol 2 and Extresol 3 at the beginning of 2016, the Group’s net debt grew, following the disbursement of 119 million euros paid from the Group’s own funds and subordinate debt, and after consolidating 413 million euros of net debt associated with these assets. The liquidity available after this purchase stood at 276 million euros.
This financial strength and high liquidity will make it possible to fund new acquisitions of energy infrastructure assets during 2016 and 2017, in line with the Group’s growth objective.
3.5.3. Acquisition of Extresol 2 and Extresol 3
As the culmination of a process that lasted for most of the second half of 2015, the acquisition of the Extresol 2 and Extresol 3 solar thermal plants was completed on 22 March 2016, the first purchase made by Saeta Yield in its history.
These assets were included in the RoFO agreement with Bow Power, and were acquired for 118.7 million euros. The acquisition meets Saeta Yield’s investment criteria and will contribute, in ordinary recurring terms and before financial expenditure associated with the acquisition, 12.5 million euros of CAFD per year, representing a transaction cash yield of approximately 10.5%.
This acquisition will increase the Group’s recurring CAFD to 68.2 million euros, considering the higher financial expenses for the purchase of equity.
This acquisition has allowed the Board of Directors to approve an increase in dividends up to 61.4 million euros (7.7% higher than previous levels).

The Group offers its shareholders an attractive dividend yield. Saeta Yield’s current dividend policy states that most of the recurring cash available for distribution (CAFD) must be distributed to shareholders19. The company makes four distributions per year, approximately 60 days after the end of each quarter. Similarly, dividends are distributed with a charge to the issue premium, which represents major tax advantages as no tax is retained by the Tax Office in Spain on each payment.
As previously mentioned, the Company paid 35.2 million euros of dividends in 2015, equivalent to 0.43 euros per share20. This figure, along with the 14.3 million euros corresponding to the last payment of 2015, distributed in March 2016, meets the dividends objective for 2015.
Following the purchase of the Extresol 2 and Extresol 3 assets on 22 March 2016, the Saeta Yield Board of Directors approved a 7.7% dividend increase, to 61.4 million euros per year.

4 Strategy
Saeta Yield’s main purpose is to maximise shareholders’ total return by paying an attractive dividend based on the operational assets in its portfolio, and the sustained increase in dividends per share due to new asset acquisitions.
To achieve this objective, the Group’s strategy is based on the following pillars:
4.1. Excellent, secure and sustainable operation
The excellent management of portfolio assets is key for the generation of sustainable, predictable and stable cash flows. For this purpose, the Group encourages the best operational processes in its generation plants and employs a team of professionals with an average of over 10 years of experience in the management of these types of assets.
A good part of the success of our plants is due to the long-term operation and maintenance contracts, which include maintenance and replacement investment needs in order to eliminate the variability in plant results and to ensure that cash generation targets are met.
These contracts, which have been signed with
parties that are well known in the market, such as Cobra Group, guarantee efficiency and quality.
Saeta supervises these operation and maintenance contracts through its on-site teams, which include management and control teams, as well as through its occupational risk prevention teams.
The Group does not only operate assets. It is also involved in the sale of energy at all levels.
Among many activities, it actively supervises, through a range of different market agents, participation in the daily energy markets. It has also recently prepared tests for participating in System Adjustment Services markets.
Saeta Yield guarantees the safety of its workers and employees, and acts under the strictest
standards, always seeking continuous improvement.
Health and safety commitments are set out in the Occupational Risk Prevention Policy. This culture of prevention and responsibility is promoted in the Group at all levels, and is driven by senior management21. When the norm is approved, the Group plans to start the ISO45001 standard certification process. Saeta Yield’s commitment to safety is reflected in its operating results: no accidents resulting in sick leave occurred in the year 2015.
Similarly, the Group is committed to innovation and development. By organizing working groups,
it attempts to identify possible improvements to the facilities that could lead to greater efficiency in the production and consumption of resources.
Through its operations, Saeta Yield contributes to the transition to a new sustainable energy model that aims to protect the environment and to fight against climate change. The renewable nature of its assets brings about a series of positive impacts on the environment, including greenhouse gas emissions avoided by producing electricity without using fossil fuels. The Group also has procedures in place that go beyond what is required by legislation and that aim to minimise negative effects on the environment and maximise the positive ones, thereby guaranteeing the efficient use of resources and the adequate management of any waste that is produced.
4. Strategy
21 For more information about Saeta Yield’s occupational health and safety
performance, consult the Appendix of this report.
2015 was the year when Saeta Yield consolidated its position in
the market. The Group has achieved all of the milestones it set
out for itself in its strategic plan for the year, and it is facing
2016 with optimism and with the aim to continue growing.
4.2. Sustained and controlled growth
The acquisition of new assets, especially renewable ones, is one of the key elements in Saeta Yield’s strategy. The close relationship with major partners and shareholders, Bow Power, ACS Group and GIP, plays a fundamental role in achieving this objective.
The Right Of First Offer (RoFO)22 and the Call Option for the Manchasol 1 solar thermal plant give Saeta Yield a preferential right to making an offer for and buying the energy assets developed by Bow Power or ACS Servicios Industriales.
A series of RoFO assets that meet Saeta Yield’s investment criteria have currently been identified, and it is very likely that they will be acquired by the Company, subject to an agreement of the price and conditions with Bow Power.
These RoFO assets are located in the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) and in Latin America (Mexico, Peru and Uruguay)23. These are assets in countries with stable regulatory frameworks offering remuneration in strong currencies (US Dollars and euros), thereby meeting the Group’s investment criteria.
22 For further information, consult the stock exchange flotation brochure available at
http://www.cnmv.es/portal/home.aspx?lang=en
23 ACS currently has a 51% share in two wind power generation facilities in Peru, with a
total of 129 MW, a 75% share in Lestenergía, totalling 124 MW, and a 100% share in a solar thermal plant in Spain, a wind power generation facility is Mexico and a wind farm in Uruguay, as well as transmission line assets in Peru. Similarly, Lestenergia is developing a repowering process to increase its capacity by 20MW.
