Even though PNE did not mention the name of the investor, reNEWS reported that Canada-based Brookfield is buying the portfolio.
A portion of the amount will be paid immediately with the remainder transferred after the under- construction projects reach certain milestones.
The deal covers PNE’s pipeline of wind farm projects with a nominal output of about 1.2GW.
Several of the projects have already been approved or are close to securing the required permits.
PNE Wind CEO Martin Billhardt said: "This transaction represents a significant step in the achievement of our EBIT guidance.
"The extensive investments required during the development of the UK projects – which have resulted in planning permissions being granted as well as a Contract for Difference (CfD) being awarded for a ready-to-build project – are now paying off."
Augusta & Co (London) and Watson Farley & Williams have advised PNE on the transaction.
Germany-based PNE Wind has generated €15.2m of sales in the first quarter of this year, compared to € 32.9m in the earlier year.
The company said last month that via the initiation of a YieldCo business, it aims to be able to open up considerable further potential.
