Exhibit 99.1
Alternus Clean Energy Announces Termination of
Membership Interest Purchase and Sales
Agreement (MIPSA) for Portfolio of Solar Parks
FORT MILL, SC – September 19, 2024— Alternus Clean Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALCE) (“Alternus” or the “Company”), a leading utility-scale transatlantic, clean energy independent power producer (IPP), has terminated its MIPSA with C2 Taiyo Fund I, LLP to acquire approximately 80MWp solar installations across 8 U.S. states, originally announced on May 1, 2024, due to seller’s failure to meet the required closing conditions and fundamental changes in the portfolio of assets planned to be acquired.
Alternus CEO Vincent Browne commented, “It is unfortunate that we cannot continue with this transaction as planned. However, this is just one of many identified strategic acquisitions and business growth areas underway for Alternus, such as the recent joint venture announcement with Hover Energy and other projects in review and under negotiation. We remain fully committed to the renewable energy market in the United States, whether via the acquisition of operating or ready-to-build projects and look forward to sharing these as soon as we can.”
Full details of the termination can be found in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission located at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at https://ir.alternusenergy.com/financials-filings/sec-filings.
