With 151 transactions of over 5 million euros, whose total estimated value is between 5.7 and 6.1 billion euros and 5.2 billion euros, without the mega-transaction through which PPC took over the renewable energy portfolio from Evryo Group, the local market last year approached the record level of 2022, when there were 155 transactions with an estimated total value of approximately 5.2 billion euros (excluding the two mega-transactions in 2022, which totaled 1.7 billion euros).
