Acquisition of Cory Riverside Energy, UK
 

When a consortium led by London-based infrastructure fund manager Dalmore Capital emerged as preferred bidder in the sale of UK energy-from-waste (EfW) company Cory Riverside Energy, there was some surprise that a team challenged by several partner drop-outs had made the highest fully-funded offer. The consortium fended off one rival from China and another combining European and Australian partners to buy the trophy asset.

The acquisition of Cory Riverside Energy – at a roughly £1.6 billion ($1.85 billion) enterprise value – completed on 28 June (2018). The controlling shareholder had been Strategic Value Partners (SVP).
