The Buddle Findlay team was led by Peter Owles and Daniel Collins, and included Ed McGimpsey and William Hunnam. Anderson Lloyd, led by Anton Trixl and Geoff Busch, advised Solar Bay.
 
Peter Owles and Daniel Collins commented "This is a fantastic project – completed in relatively challenging market conditions. It was great to support the team at Westpac, led by Annabelle Bailey, and work alongside the Solar Bay and Anderson Lloyd teams."  
 
Annabelle Bailey from Westpac, commented "We are thrilled that Maungaturoto Solar Farm project has reached financial close. This milestone is a result of a lot of hard work and commitment by all the teams involved. The Buddle Findlay team in particular were invaluable throughout the process".
