EDEN Renewables India has achieved financial close of a 450-Megawatt peak solar photovoltaic project currently under construction in Rajasthan, Northern India.
EDEN Renewables India is the product of a 50:50 joint venture between EDF Renewables, a wholly owned subsidiary of the French utility EDF Group, and independent power producer Total Eren.
Awarded the solar project following a tender launched by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI), EDEN then signed a power purchase agreement with the SECI in June 2019.

This year marks a milestone for JRI America Inc in Ireland. As it enters its tenth year in business, the company’s technology centre at Kerry Business Park has evolved to play a crucial role in its international operations, employing 200 people across a range of high-value roles.
The work carried out by these professionals is key to supporting Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation – one of Japan’s largest banks and a Fortune 500 company – in important global markets, such as North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
FinTLV Ventures, managed by Gil Arazi, Avishai Silvershatz, Gilbert Ohana, and Mark Chess, has started a second investment fund for startups in the fintech and insurtech sectors, and is currently raising $120 million, half of which from Israeli institutions and the other half from overseas investors. Clal Insurance Enterprises Holdings Ltd. has invested $35 million in the new fund and led the round alongside Psagot Investment House and Poalim Capital Markets, who together raised $20 million, where Psagot is expected to increase its investment.
In doing so, Clal is doubling down on its investment in FinTLV, having only seven months ago invested $30 million as part of a $150 million funding round for digital insurtech Israeli startup Hippo - a round that led Hippo to a valuation of $1.5 billion. Psagot and Poalim also participated in that round, and together raised $30 million, alongside Clal.
