During the normal course of business, the Company has historically conducted operations with related parties consisting mainly of Abengoa´s subsidiaries and non-controlling interests. The transactions were completed at market rates.

Further to the sale of its remaining 16.47% stake in the Company to Algonquin on November 27, 2018, Abengoa ceased to fulfill the conditions to be a related party as per IAS 24 - Related Parties Disclosures. Algonquin on its side is a related party since it completed the acquisition of a 25% stake in the Company in March 2018.

Details of balances with related parties as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which therefore do not include balances with Abengoa, are as follows:
