Watson Farley & Williams (“WFW”) is pleased to announce that a deal the firm advised on was named Export Finance Renewables Deal of the Year at the TXF Perfect 10 Awards 2025.
Recognising outstanding transactions in export finance across the world, the TXF Perfect 10 Awards are an industry gold-standard for excellence.
WFW advised ÇALIK ENERJİ SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. (“Çalık Enerji”) on the approximately €112m financing of the 73 MW Zatriq Wind Power Plant in south-western Kosovo. The deal marked Çalık Renewables’ first renewable energy investment outside of Türkiye and the first wind project supported by Swiss Export Risk Insurance (SERV).
Frankfurt Project and Structured Finance Partner Riko Vanezis, who led the WFW Germany Project and Structured Finance team that advised Çalık Enerji, commented: “We are delighted that this landmark transaction has been recognised by TXF. Advising on cross-border, ECA-backed structures of this kind reflects both the strength and depth of our teams’ sector expertise and our commitment to enabling complex renewable energy projects across emerging markets”.
