The company, which also cited current trading as a reason for the upgrade, now expects FY 2021 adjusted EBITDA of between $810m and $840m, up from guidance of $780m to $810m given in October.
"The Arrubal power plant has been operating on a merchant basis since the purchase power agreement expired in July 2021 and has benefitted from a meaningful level of dispatch during the last couple of months as a result of the current market environment in Spain," it said.
