Enfinity Global Inc., a prominent player in the global renewable energy sector, has announced the successful closing of a bond facility worth up to €100 million, secured from Eiffel Investment Group. The funding will be used to accelerate the development and deployment of energy storage and solar photovoltaic (PV) projects across Europe.

The facility is being financed through four investment vehicles managed by Eiffel Investment Group, a Paris-based asset management firm known for its strong focus on sustainable and climate-aligned investments.
