Latham & Watkins LLP advised Deutsche Bank, ING, and LBBW in connection with the successful syndication of a €1.8 billion internationally syndicated debt financing agreement for NeXtWind, a leading European wind energy company. The transaction involved the upsizing of the financing package from €1.4 billion to €1.8 billion due to strong global demand. The financing structure attracted leading banks and insurance companies from North America, Asia, and Europe. NeXtWind, which currently operates 37 wind park sites with 500 MW installed capacity and holds a pipeline of more than 1.9 GW under permitting and construction, plans to exceed 3 GW capacity by 2028. This financing marks a shift for NeXtWind from individual project finance to a scalable investment platform integrating international capital, regulatory frameworks, and local infrastructure.
