Jordan Knauff & Company, a middle-market investment bank with offices in Chicago. Illinois, and Kansas City, Missouri, was awarded the 2010 Americas Middle-Market Green Energy Deal of the Year by the M&A Atlas Awards at a ceremony recently held in New York City.

Jordan Knauff & Company was recognized for its work as financial advisor in the sale of a 51% interest in two wind portfolios (totaling 775 MW) in Poland to The AES Corporation, a global power company based in Arlington, Virginia. The transactions, the largest of their kind in Poland, are the cornerstone for future capital flows into the renewable industry in Poland by major global players.

Mr. Miguel A. Pachicano, Managing Director of Jordan Knauff & Company’s specialized practice in the natural resources and renewable energy industries, commented, “We are extremely pleased to be a part of these landmark transactions and believe that they highlight the fact that in Poland, just as in the United States, there is continued appetite by investors to support wind project development and purchase mid-stage and late-stage development rights in portfolios with solid fundamentals.”

Sponsored by the Global M&A Network, the Americas M&A Atlas Awards honor top deals, deal makers, and firms from North and South America middle-market mergers and acquisitions communities. Judging is based on performance metrics such as deal novelty and structure, sector and market complexities, professional leadership and resourcefulness, among other criteria. “Award winners earned high marks in a competitive selection process from 175 finalists in 25 deal categories,” commented Ms. Shanta Kumari, Managing Partner of the Global M&A Network.
