State-owned oil& gas player Equinor has entered another renewables market after signing a deal with Portugal’s Martifer Renewables over a 117MW solar PV project.

Equinor, in partnership with fellow Norwegian player Scatec Solar, acquired the Guanizul 2A (G2A) solar asset in Argentina. Equinor and Scatec now each own a 50% interest in the ready-to-build solar farm located in the San Juan region of Argentina.
