      HOUSTON, 7 de maio de 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Em vista da longa tradição da Andrews Kurth no setor energético da América Latina, a Andrews Kurth LLP (Andrews Kurth) foi a principal consultora de desenvolvimento e a principal consultora financeira das empresas internacionais de energia AEI e Pattern Energy Group LP (Pattern), para o desenvolvimento e financiamento de $ 245 milhões do projeto do Parque Eolico El Arrayan SpA, uma usina eólica de 115 MW. O projeto, localizado no oceano Pacífico, a cerca de 250 milhas (402 quilômetros) de Santiago, é propriedade da AEI, da Pattern e da Antofagasta Minerals SA (AMSA).

      A empreiteira internacional Skanska Chile S.A. está encarregada da construção da usina, que deve entrar em operação comercial em 2014. A Siemens Energy, Inc. vai fornecer 50 turbinas eólicas de 2,3 megawatts para a usina. A Andrews Kurth orientou as empresas na negociação e no fechamento dos contratos de construção e de fornecimento das turbinas, bem como nos acordos de offtake (contratos de compra e venda de produção futura, firmado antes da construção da usina) para o projeto, que incluem acordos de venda de eletricidade e de serviços de energia renovável, por 20 anos, com a Minera Los Pelambres, uma companhia de mineração controlada pela AMSA, para a venda da energia produzida pela usina.

      A Andrews Kurth também assessorou as empresas na negociação e no fechamento de uma estrutura financeira avançada, que incluiu um financiamento via empréstimos da construção, que se converte em um financiamento com prazo de 15 anos, uma carta de linha de crédito e uma linha de financiamento de imposto sobre valor agregado. Os empréstimos para a construção e a prazo foram fornecidos em duas parcelas, sendo uma da instituição de crédito para exportação da Dinamarca, EKF, que concedeu empréstimos garantidos através de seu programa ELO, e a outra parcela de um consórcio de financiadores comerciais internacionais, formado pelo The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation e Credit Agricole Corporate & Investment Bank. Os financiadores comerciais também forneceram uma carta de linha de crédito e o banco chileno Corpbanca forneceu financiamento de imposto sobre valor agregado.

      "O Chile dispõe de um programa significativo de crédito para energia renovável e assumiu um forte compromisso com o desenvolvimento de fontes limpas de energia, para suprir a crescente necessidade de eletricidade", disse o parceiro da Andrews Kurth para financiamento do projeto, George Humphrey, que liderou a equipe de financiamento, bem como as negociações de compra de eletricidade e offtake. "O projeto eólico de Arrayan é um testemunho desse compromisso. O projeto desenvolveu formas verdadeiramente inovadoras de combinar as necessidades de geração de energia eólica, com o sistema elétrico do Chile e os financiadores internacionais, para fechar um financiamento dessa magnitude", declarou.

      O Sr. Humphrey está, atualmente, trabalhando no desenvolvimento de um projeto de usina eólica na Guatemala e diversos de seus clientes nos EUA passaram a se interessar pela América Latina, porque os incentivos para esses projetos nos Estados Unidos acabaram. Ele ajudou a concluir projetos de usinas eólicas nos Estados Unidos que totalizam mais de 1.150 MW e também prestou assessoria em projetos de usinas térmicas e hidrelétricas na Bolívia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, México e Nicarágua.

      Equipe de negociação

      Além de George Humphrey, a equipe de negociação da Andrews Kurth conta com, entre outros, Dahl Thompson, Mark Thurber, Woody Jones, Dan Swendsen e Morgan O'Neill.
