Celse: Best Bond; and Best Infrastructure Financing: Brazil
Mayer Brown and T&C lawyers represented GE Capital as a credit supporter for the Porto de Sergipe I liquefied natural gas (LNG) power plant arranged by Centrais Elétricas de Sergipe (CELSE). The project raised approximately $1.46 billion through bond buyers and multilateral lenders. According to the LatinFinance, “Celse’s innovative approach, which also includes a bond guarantee from the Swiss export credit agency SERV, has earned the power company the awards.” The project, located in Barra dos Coqueiros in the State of Sergipe, comprises of three main units: a floating offshore storage and regasification unit, a thermoelectric plant and a transmission line to transport regasified LNG from the offshore terminal to the plant. The completed project will be the largest thermal power plant in Brazil by capacity.
