London/Berlin, 28 March 2025 – Enpal, Europe’s market leader in residential solar, Germany’s leader in heatpumps, and the developer of the cutting-edge energy trading platform Enpal.One+, has set a new record at this year's GlobalCapital European Securitization Awards. The company secured six prestigious titles for its pioneering role in launching Europe’s first residential solar asset-backed securitization (ABS), a deal that has redefined the landscape of renewable energy financing across Europe.

Despite long-standing investor demand for ESG-aligned assets in Europe, until Enpal no European solar provider had successfully aggregated sufficient volume to launch a public residential solar securitization program. The awards, voted for by the financial industry, underline once more the significance of the deal for the entire renewable energy sector. In total, Enpal was awarded in six categories:

• ABS Deal of the Year,
• Most Innovative Deal of the Year,
• ESG Issuer of the Year,
• ESG Deal of the Year,
• Esoteric ABS Deal of the Year,
• and Esoteric ABS Issuer of the Year.

"These awards are a testament to the confidence the financial industry has placed in our vision," said Gregor Burkart, Head of Refinancing at Enpal. "We are deeply grateful for this recognition, which underlines the massive demand for green investment opportunities in the market. These awards belong not only to Enpal, but also to our partners who have helped us shape this new asset class for Europe".

"This impressive result reflects the hard work of our team and the support of investors and partners who believe in making renewable energy more accessible to households. We are truly honoured and would like to extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who has voted for us. We hope to have paved the way for other renewable energy providers to enter this attractive market," said Viktor Wingert, Co-founder and Chief Financial Officer of Enpal.

The debut transaction, Golden Ray - 1, a €240 million transaction backed by a portfolio of approximately 8,500 residential solar loans to German homeowners, was successfully priced in October 2024 and up to six times oversubscribed. Following this success, Enpal aims for repeat issuances and plans to issue a second portfolio in the near future.
