The acquisition of the Wormald Green Solar Farm is part of the IPP’s growth strategy set out by its parent company, Tiger Infrastructure Partners, a private equity firm, to expand Forsa Energy’s renewable energy generation portfolio.
October 1, 2026
Independent power producer (IPP) Forsa Energy has acquired a ready-to-build (RTB) 59.3MWp solar PV project in North Yorkshire.
The Wormald Green Solar Farm is being developed by solar PV and energy storage developer Harmony Energy, and the project is expected to reach financial close and enter construction in the fourth quarter of 2026. Commercial operations are targeted for Q4 2027.
The acquisition of the project is part of the IPP’s growth strategy set out by its parent company, Tiger Infrastructure Partners, a private equity firm, to expand Forsa Energy’s renewable energy generation portfolio. Tiger Infrastructure Partners acquired Forsa Energy in 2020.
Currently, the company’s main portfolio consists of gas generation assets.
Stephen Milloy, construction and delivery director at Forsa Energy, said: “This transaction marks the first solar ready-to-build project to enter Forsa’s near-term construction pipeline and represents an important milestone in the company’s growth strategy.

“Together with the wind assets acquisition completed earlier this year, the project supports Forsa’s ongoing efforts to expand and diversify its generation portfolio.”
On top of expanding its solar PV portfolio, the company also has a 260MW development pipeline of battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Forsa Energy’s acquisition of the 59.3MWp Wormald Green Solar Farm highlights an ongoing trend in the UK solar market, with mergers and acquisitions activity remaining robust. Data from Solar Media Market Research highlighted that more than 100 assets totalling 6.2GWp have changed hands since the beginning of the year.
“This sustained activity reflects continued investor confidence in UK solar fundamentals despite infrastructure challenges,” wrote Josh Cornes, senior market analyst at Solar Media Market Research on Solar Power Portal last month.
