FCC's exit from the renewable energy business is part of a long term plan that includes the divestment of non-strategic assets to focus on construction, water and environmental services, Vozpopuli said.

Seven years ago, FCC had sold a 51% in FCC Energia to Plenium Partners for 8 million euros.

Plenium Partners did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment and an FCC spokesman declined to comment.
