Chariot Ltd (AIM:CHAR, OTC:OIGLF) chief financial officer Julian Maurice-Williams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about two key announcements tied to the company’s renewable energy operations in South Africa. The first announcement covers the financial close of two large-scale wind power projects — Zen (100MW) and Bergriver (94MW) — both located in the Western Cape. Maurice-Williams highlighted that Chariot Generation and Trading, a new subsidiary, owns 24% of the assets alongside project lead Acciona Energía. Construction is set to begin imminently, with commissioning targeted for mid-2027. The second announcement focuses on the financing of Chariot’s stake. Maurice-Williams explained the multi-layered structure, stating: “We brought in a strategic partner, and we’ve done it all at the subsidiary level… around $100 million net.” Funding sources include $284 million of project finance debt from Standard Bank and Investec, a $17 million equity investment from South African fund Mahlako, and a $9 million mezzanine facility from Standard Bank. He also outlined how the structure ensures no dilution at the parent level, while retaining control of the renewable business. Looking ahead to 2026, Chariot aims to generate material revenues from both its renewable and upstream oil and gas arms. Maurice-Williams also noted that the company is exploring the separation of these divisions and has entered discussions with ACWA Power regarding a broader Southern African sustainable energy platform.
