BERLIN, March 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Photovolt Development Partners, a leader in renewable energy solutions, announced its latest U.K. initiative aimed at supporting farmers while promoting environmental sustainability. Through strategic partnerships with landowners, Photovolt is championing the integration of solar farming into agricultural landscapes.

Farmers across the country are facing increasing challenges, from fluctuating market prices to climate change impacts. In response, Photovolt recognizes the potential of solar energy to provide farmers with diversified revenue streams while preserving the natural environment and their land.

“Solar provides farmers with an opportunity to diversify their revenue streams, while preserving the natural environment and their own land,” said Julia Lejeune, Co-Founder & Managing Director of Photovolt. “We are committed to supporting farmers in embracing sustainable practices that benefit both their operations and the wider community.”

Solar farms not only offer financial benefits to farmers but also contribute to creating a legacy of enriched soil and habitat for future generations. Photovolt’s solar farms are designed to be temporary, quick to build, and quick to remove, with a typical lifespan of between 25 and 45 years. Landowners partnering with Photovolt receive an option fee and a stable annual rent per acre, or a percentage of the gross revenue from the solar generation. Additionally, portions of the land used for solar farms may continue to be used for sheep grazing and other mixed-use purposes.

To gain consent for solar farm projects, Photovolt demonstrates significant biodiversity net gain, ensuring that landowners benefit from enhanced biodiversity during and after the tenancy period. The company implements an extensive mitigation strategy after public consultations to minimize visual impact, prioritizing the preservation of the natural landscape.

“We believe in fostering mutually beneficial relationships with farmers, ensuring that our solar projects contribute positively to both the environment and local communities,” added Lejeune.

Furthermore, Photovolt’s leases include a requirement to reinstate the land to its previous condition upon project completion, removing all solar equipment and cabling. This commitment ensures that the land can continue to be utilized for agricultural purposes.

Photovolt’s partnership with farmers represents a significant step towards a more sustainable future, where renewable energy and agriculture work hand in hand to create lasting benefits for all stakeholders.

About Photovolt:

Photovolt Development Partners is a leading provider of renewable energy solutions, dedicated to promoting sustainability and environmental stewardship as a developer of utility-scale photovoltaic power plants. With a focus on innovation and collaboration, Photovolt is committed to driving positive change for future generations.

New tender offer capabilities connect equity management with real-time valuation data covering approximately 65,000 private companies with a combined estimated value of $9 trillion, laying the groundwork for future secondary marketplace capabilities.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Eqvista, a leading equity management and valuation platform serving more than 25,000 companies, today announced the launch of company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, enabling private companies to organize structured liquidity events directly within their equity management platform. The launch also marks a step toward Eqvista’s planned secondary marketplace capabilities.

As companies stay private longer, employees and early investors face limited opportunities to sell their shares. Meanwhile, organizing liquidity events involves complex decisions around pricing, participant eligibility, approvals, and ownership changes.

Eqvista brings these processes together through a company-controlled tender offer workflow, supported by its equity management infrastructure and Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® technology.

“With Eqvista, private companies can help their employees and early investors turn their shares into cash, rewarding them for their contributions to the company,” said Tomas Milar, Founder and CEO of Eqvista. “We already help companies manage ownership and understand their value. Bringing tender offers into the same platform is a natural next step toward connecting equity management, valuation, and liquidity.”

Company-Controlled Tender Offers

Eqvista’s new capabilities allow companies to manage tender offers while maintaining control over participation, transaction terms, and ownership changes.

Key features include:

Cap table integration: Automatically record completed ownership changes.Participant controls: Define eligible buyers and sellers and offer windows.Allocation rules: Set transaction limits, pro rata allocations, and priorities.Integrated approvals: Manage approval requirements and rights of first refusal.Valuation-informed pricing: Reference Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® data when evaluating transaction pricing.

By integrating these processes, Eqvista aims to reduce the administrative complexity of organizing liquidity events while helping companies maintain control over their shareholder base.

Building Toward a Secondary Marketplace

Building on its company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, Eqvista plans to expand into secondary marketplace infrastructure designed to support structured, company-approved liquidity programs. By connecting ownership records, real-time valuation data, and private share transactions within one platform, Eqvista aims to make private market liquidity more accessible while allowing companies to maintain control over participation and ownership changes. Further details will be announced as development progresses, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.
