Latin America’s expansion demands renewable energy infrastructure that can keep pace with its industries. These awards belong to the teams and partners building what the region requires.”— Esteban Uauy, CFO of Atlas Renewable EnergyMIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, October 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — São Paulo, October 5, 2026 — Atlas Renewable Energy, a frontrunner in renewable power generation, has secured two honors at LatinFinance’s Project & Infrastructure Finance Awards 2026, tied to the $3 billion refinancing of its Latin American portfolio. The firm took home Infrastructure Financing of the Year: Latin America and Project Sponsor of the Year, accolades that highlight both the scale of the transaction and Atlas’s role as a developer, investor, and operator across the region.
Finalized in February 2026, Atlas’s refinancing of roughly $3 billion consolidated the bulk of its assets into a corporate financing framework, spanning a portfolio across Brazil, Chile, and Mexico. The move bolstered the company’s capital structure and secured more favorable financing terms, laying a sturdier groundwork for ongoing investment.
For Atlas, this capability serves a tangible mission: meeting the power demands of industries shaping Latin America’s future. From mining to digital infrastructure, the company partners with clients whose operations, growth, and competitiveness hinge on dependable and cost-effective energy supply.
“Latin America’s growth calls for renewable energy infrastructure that can match the aspirations of its industries,” said Chief Financial Officer Esteban Uauy. “This refinancing reflects the trust our financial partners place in the platform we’ve built and our ability to deliver across diverse markets. The awards belong to Atlas’s teams and partners who turn that trust into infrastructure serving the region”.
“This recognition carries particular weight for Atlas in Brazil because it mirrors the strength of the platform we’ve developed over recent years and the capability of our teams to pull off large-scale projects, forge partnerships, and run assets that matter greatly to the power sector. The award also underscores Brazil’s standing within Atlas’s Latin American operations and the need to keep advancing a more renewable and competitive energy matrix,” said Fábio Bortoluzzo, president of Atlas Renewable Energy in Brazil.
The transaction was executed with backing from Atlas’s sponsor, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), part of BlackRock, along with participation from BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, MUFG Bank, Ltd., Natixis CIB, and Santander CIB.
This year’s LatinFinance Project & Infrastructure Finance Awards drew more than 1,000 entries across all categories. Winners are chosen by LatinFinance’s editors through research, market consultations, and transaction evaluations, honoring the most significant achievements in a sector vital to the region’s economic progress.
