JSW Energy’s O2 Power acquisition tells us buying is better than building assets

Live Mint  

JSW Energy Ltd has announced the acquisition of O2 Power Pooling, a company engaged in renewable power, for an enterprise value of ₹12,468 crore. Note that 4.7GW of capacity is split into three GW of solar and 1.7GW of wind—building this capacity would have come at the same cost, that is approximately ₹26,000 crore, as setting up solar power plants that cost ₹4 crore per MW, and ₹8 crore per MW for wind. For JSW Energy, building new capacity would have meant uncertain timeline and a lack of revenue visibility. Since FY27 will be the first full year of 2.3GW capacity getting operational, the acquisition is valued at EV/Ebitda of 8.3x, much cheaper than JSW Energy’s own valuation of 12x based on Bloomberg consensus estimates for FY27.
