Munich Re purchased the wind farms via its asset management subsidiary MEAG, which paid an undisclosed sum to previous owner HgCapital, a private equity group.
The plants are the 65MW Scout Moor wind farm near Manchester, the 21MW Tir Mostyn in North Wales and the 16MW Bagmoor in Lincolnshire.
MEAG says the deal comes under Munich Re’s Renewable Energies and New Technologies programme, which plans to invest a total of €2.5bn
